The Comas "Tonight On The WB" Yep RocBrent Bonacorso, directorNotorious 24:7, production companyDescription: Sounds like The Pixies, looks kind of like Sin City.

This video is part of a conceptual sci-fi adventure story based on the The Comas' new album Conductor and included as a bonus DVD.
The Comas "Invisible Drugs" Yep RocBradley Scott, directorDescription: The Comas take low-budget video making to a new level by doing away with the cameraman.
