Avenged Sevenfold - [Little Piece of Heaven](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXMobqWhpsk) And my personal favorite, inspired by Hieronymus Bosch: Buckethead - [Spokes on the Wheel of Torment](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bSZslEDUl0&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.truveo.com%2FBuckethead-Spokes-for-the-Wheel-of-Torment-best%2Fid%2F2094653397&feature=player_embedded) ---

It always reminded me of the Art of Noise’s, “Close to the Edit”. According to one of the comments a couple pages into your link, the same director made both.

> [@Spudo](#): > > Windowlicker by Aphex Twin is pretty screwed up. I won’t link it because it’s quite NSFW, but it’s on YouTube. It’s quite long, and doesn’t get REALLY weird until about 4 minutes in. Personally, I always found Rubber Johnny to be far more weird. And creepy. And horrifying.
