Michael Shore (1984)

Michael Shore (1984) argues that music videos are:
Recycled styles, surface with substance, simulated experience, information overload, image and style scavengers, ambivalence, decadence, immediate gratification, vanity and the moment, image assaults and outré folks, the death of content, anesthetization of violence through chic, adolescent male fantasies, speed, power, girls and wealth, album art come to turgid life, classical motifs, style over content, form over meaning.
