VIDEO: Grimes – “Kill V. Maim”

There’s still something to be said for a powerfully creative music video, even if there isn’t a major outlet to play said video anymore. Grimes’ latest, “Kill V. Maim”, is just that sort of powerful creativity, which is good, considering the song comes from a project entitled “Art Angels”.  The song is catchy as hell, which is nice, but the
