New M83 video - Steve McQueen

Nearly a year after the release of Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, arguably the best album of 2011, M83 have released this utterly fantastic music video for "Steve McQueen."

Directors Balthazar Auxietre and Sylvain Derosne utilize a plethora of stop-motion animation, giving real life to the inanimate dream-like objects in a child's science experiment.

A lot of what made music videos so groundbreaking in the 80s and 90s isn't necessarily gone, but dissolved in an age which the video has become a secondary media tool. But you'd have to think if this video were made in, say, 1995, that people would remember it for a while.
