The Milk Carton Kids "Poison Tree" (Mike Venezia, dir.)

via LA Times: "Los Angeles' Milk Carton Kids have stepped out from behind the curtain and appear for the first time on camera in one of their music videos, about a shopping mall security guard whose solitary existence is buoyed in a surprising way by memories of a love from his younger days. Fittingly, the video was shot at Eagle Rock Plaza in the duo’s hometown."

Plain White T's "Pause" (Mike Venezia, dir.)

Cameos by Thomas Ian Nicholas (American Pie) and the banged up RV from Breaking Bad, or, at least EW claims:

In the band’s new music video for their latest single, “Pause,” Plain White T’s reincarnate the RV, which inevitably breaks down in the middle of nowhere. But as the “make the most of everything” song suggests, the band turns the car trouble into a desert party. 

Shot at Vasquez Rocks in Agua Dulce, CA.

Plain White T's - Should've Gone to Bed (Official Video)

The ghost of a most recent girlfriend past haunts a man in director Mike Venezia's latest video for pop-rockers Plain White T's.  Things work out in the end — as required by the bylaws of pop video — but not before he puts himself through an emotional wringer thinking about their time together.
