10 Shocking Music Videos From Big-Name Artists

2. Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy

Let's get one thing straight, Richard D James is one of the scariest men in music.

At one point, he released a song that, when played run through a spectrograph, reveals an image of a demon's face. Which is actually him.

And if that wasn't scary enough, the video for 'Come to Daddy' is equally as terrifying. In it, an old lady walks a dog past a TV set and accidentally awakens the face of the devil himself, hungry for her soul, as you do.

And then about a dozen children come along, all with James's faces superimposed onto their heads. Anti-social behaviour ensues before a bony, grey zombie climbs out of the TV, scares the old lady and morphs into James, who then pats his freaky Aphex-children's heads.

The message behind the video is somewhat unclear, but you'll certainly be reliving it long into the night as you're trying to get to sleep.
