Amanda Palmer & The Grand Theft Orchestra, "Get It Back" (2012)

Amanda Palmer is a polarizing figure in the indie-rock community, but there's no denying the artistry of this clip: stop-motion animation is tedious, complex stuff, and the visuals in this clip must have been no picnic to pull off. But "Get It Back" is as much a clever case of marketing as it is a visual showstopper: Palmer is probably canny enough to realize a new video tagged "NSFW" because of her own nudity is more likely to get eyes on it than a new video promoted because it uses a century-old form of animation.

Rating: 8. It's classy, impressive art that just happens to have a naked lady at the beginning. A great way to earn your NSFW stripes without being tasteless.
