The Jaxx have hit us with some bangin' videos over the years, and these latest two from Crazy Itch Radio (XL Recordings) continue that proud audio-visual legacy. Standard B-Jaxx fare, but of course standard for these guys involves far-flung fantasy scenarios, quirks galore, and some bad-ass dance numbers.

"Hush Boy" features a trippy dinner-date, a fancy-footed wait-staff, and a touch o' the ol' toilet humor-- but sadly, no muppets croaking out that "If you want me for your girlfriend" bit. Director Dougal Wilson's "Take Me Back to Your House", meanwhile, whisks us away to some remote Soviet watering hole populated by dancing Cossacks, dancing bears, and a big dude with a big tank. Both vids deliver enough spectacle to make them well worth your clicks.
