10 Best Rock Music Videos Of 2023 (So Far)

10. It Hurts - Enter Shikari

Sometimes, a music video doesn't have to make a great deal of sense to be epic.

British group Enter Shikari proved that when they released the promo for their song It Hurts in February 2023. It Hurts comes from the band's seventh album A Kiss for the Whole World, which became the outfit's first record to top the UK charts.

No pressure, then.

The video starts off with footage of someone's foot on an old TV. It turns out this isn't the only weird thing going on, as the video explodes into a sequence of non-sequiturs.

The camera pans around what seems to be a large warehouse, showing viewers a variety of bizarre scenes.

A band member is playing the drums whilst someone uses a leaf blower on them; a man conducts an invisible orchestra from atop a step-ladder; some sort of fortune teller holds a fish in a bowl up to the light.

Bonkers, all of it.

There's a dark undertone to this video, as all the characters drop dead throughout the runtime. It's a really unique short film, but were you expecting anything less from this lot?
