Electro Classic Jukebox: Front 242.


From their 1988 album Front By Front, here's Aarschot, Belgiums's Front 242 with "Headhunter." Directed by the one and only Anton Corbijn, I think it captures the industrial imagination of the track quite well. And who can forget these lyrics back in the day?
"One, you lock the target,
Two, you bait the line,
Three, you slowly spread the net,
Four, you catch the man ..."
Irresistible!

Electro Classic Jukebox: Depeche Mode.


Directed by the one and only Anton Corbijn, here is Depeche Mode and their video for "Behind The Wheel," off of the 1987 album Music For The Masses. I love the imagery in Corbijn's videos he did during this period. One needs only to see Depeche Mode's 30-minute 1987 film Strange. There was a definite theme going on in Corbijn's direction, and it was magical.
