30 Seconds To Mars: Kings and Queens
This in my opinion is an amazing example of an alternative/rock music videos as it follows most of the forms and conventions of its genre and also conforms with the Andrew Goodwin theory. The music video contains visuals which link with the lyrics, however they aren't very direct making them non stereotypical eg- when they say 'into the night' there is a shot of the bike riders riding in the night. A lot of the shots are edited to match the rhythm and there are loads of cuts to the band as well as close-ups of the lead singer. The main motif of the band are that majority of their music videos are similar to movies and this particular music video is supposed to be like a short movie which was inspired by this song as opposed to a stereotypical music video.
