You're probably thinking of Happiness in Slavery, a song from the 1992 Broken EP. However there is also a Broken movie, which is a 20-minute music video / snuff film for the EP (including the Happiness in Slavery video) that has some seriously ****ed up shit in it. Consult wikipedia for more information, and you can find it all on Youtube.

Hmm, watching it, it doesn't appear to be the same one. The video I recall in the begining showed many decomposing body parts in a home and in the refridgerator.
Then it goes over to a bald man torturing someone, cutting them open and sticking his hands inside of them, eventually he wears someone's skinned face and then starts raping the victim.

Maybe it's just a different part to the movie, seems like the same style.

"Freight Train" by Nitro (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3805245790304828464&q=nitro+freight+train&ei=Txg6SN7yJouY-gGUhrnoAw). Nothing beats it. Nothing.

One of my favorite 80's songs, Shake the Disease- Depeche Mode
http://youtube.com/watch?v=onh-rshjcz4

(Lead singer looks like Michael Bolton from Office Space, lol)

[Adabiviak]

So does anyone else here remember when music videos came to 'regular' television (for those of us who didn't get cable/MTv)? I remember staying up late to watch "Friday Night Videos" on channel 3 (NBC). One of my friends had HBO, and there was something called Video Jukebox, I think. The first music video I ever saw was Eddie Grant: Electric Avenue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtPk5IUbdH0), and I thought it was quite odd that someone would make a little vignette to their song like that.


...next thing you know, it's a lifestyle.
