8 Music Videos So Nasty They Were Banned

8. Tool - "Prison Sex"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5sIXUbMgF0 Though far from the most grotesque thing on this list (sorry), this stop-motion music video from Tool answers a pretty disturbing question: What would child abuse look like if a suicidal Tim Burton wanted to tackle the issue in the next installment of Toy Story? There's something even more disturbing about using the doll as the stand-in for a child, because a doll is supposed to be the thing that comforts a child. And to see that symbol of security violated by that devil spawn thing, with its grossly long fingers and spot-on molester aura is just...my stomach hurts even thinking about it. Once you understand what the basic story is about, it's impossible to look away. Which makes this a dangerous video to have thrust upon an unsuspecting viewer. Though there's no doubt this video has a strong, moral message. But it's probably one best viewed without being bookend by Backstreet Boys and Christina Aguilera.
