Music Video Break: The Airborne Toxic Event Edition

The Airborne Toxic Event's "All At Once" album is one of my favorite albums of the year. From start to finish, there is just well, everything to like about the album. While the discussion about what are my favorite albums this year comes at another time, talking about this amazing band from Loz Feliz, Los Angeles comes without hesitation. Today they released their latest music video for the song, "All I Wanted." Check it out below.

The song: "All I Ever Wanted"
The musician: The Airborne Toxic Event


Normally this is where this post would end, however, by simply browsing their YouTube page and watching their video for "Changing," which I can't get enough of, there's a few other clips of the band performing songs off "All At Once." Titled the "Bombastic Video" (for what reason I don't know; readers got any info on that?) the clips below have the band performing the songs in acoustic and more intimate fashion. You won't find them lip-syncing over the track like is the common thing with music videos. Nope, these are straight up performances by the band and really I think they are better off being the "official" music videos rather than the production that goes into making one. It is however worth pointing out that in the case of "Changing," that the official version is really a more polished version of the "Bombastic" version as you see the same dance troupe making a cameo. Don't get me wrong, I like the video they just debuted for "All I Wanted." Consider this one of those rare and special instances where a band can make multiple videos for a song and each version has redeeming qualities and you end up liking them all.

That said, enjoy these additional music videos of The Airborne Toxic Event as these versions of the songs off the album in some instances are better than what's heard on the album. If you ask me, they shouldn't even bother making an "official" video for "All For A Woman," because the version that you see below is pretty much, perfect.
