Billy Talent - Viking Death March
As per Wikipedia: The music video was released on the band's official website and on the band's YouTube channel on July 16, 2012. It is a live music video compiled from live footage that was shot during the band's performances at the Rock am Ring festival in Nürburg, Germany on June 2, and at the Melkweg in Amsterdam, Netherlands on June 6. The music video was directed by Michael Maxxis and David Hogan.
Concluding commentary: this is a rather basic format, yet effective given the editing. What is also notable is that this is not an actual live recording as it uses the studio version of the song over a heavily-edited live concert.
Imagine Dragons - Demons
As per Wikipedia: Released on May 7, 2013 and shot in Las Vegas, Nevada at the band's performance at The Joint on February 9, 2013, the video features a mix of live footage of the band and a companion narrative. Various characters with personal hardships are depicted, including a grieving daughter, a man with marfans syndrome who stares at himself in a mirror, a victim of parental abuse and a military veteran. The clip ends with a dedication to Tyler Robinson (1995-2013), a fan of the band who died at the age of 17 in March 2013 following a battle with cancer.
Concluding commentary: much like the aforementioned Billy Talent, this music video is very simplistic in style yet also less edited and more natural in flavor. This is all natural recording from the actual performance and not the studio version released on the album.
