PLAZAS "2 Leave U Behind"

*VIVID RADIO is on the air*

PLAZAS is the dark electro-pop project of Savana Salloum-Hedgecock, who shared "Silent Empires" from her Empathy EP earlier this year. After a recent relocation from Vancouver to Toronto, the artist has now given "2 Leave U Behind" from that same release the visual treatment.

The new clip arrives courtesy of director David Ehrenreich, and it pairs the slinky grooves of the song with footage that shows off the darker side to carnival fun.

Shots of an empty trash-filled grandstand, rows of porta-potties, sad inedible display food and grown-ass adults playing on kids rides give the whole thing a bit of grim feel. That's not to say there isn't some fun to be had at the midway and watching the rodeo in action, though.

Join in the fun at the fair by watching "2 Leave U Behind" in the player below.

Crazy Bones "Delusions"

*VIVID RADIO is on the air*

Toronto garage rockers Crazy Bones bonded at university over "drinking and cooking and rock'n'roll," and have since channeled their love for Sabbath, Zeppelin, psych and doom into their own unique sound. The three-piece are now unleashing a brand new video for "Delusions," which should serve as a perfect introduction for the unacquainted.

The track comes from the band's upcoming EP Cosmic Drips, which was recorded at Toronto's Candle Studios with Dylan Frankland. It's a sludgy, fuzzed-out jam that ponders the mysteries of the afterlife, and it's been paired with visuals that capture a series of rituals involving candles, masks and flowers in the depths of the dark forest.

Watch the video for "Delusions" below. If you like the band and want to get to know them better, be sure to catch their hometown set at the Exclaim!-presented Class of 2017 showcase at the Horseshoe Tavern on January 14.

Tegan and Sara "Dying to Know"

Pop geniuses Tegan and Sara continue to treat Love You to Death tracks to new music videos. Up next, they've dropped a clip for "Dying to Know."

The synth-heavy pop anthem has been treated to a genuinely adorable video from director Nathan Boey. The clip sees our heroines transformed into puppets that cruise around in a Lambo and perform on the beach.
