Sometimes the simplest and stupidest of videos are the best ones; look no further than Unsane’s legendary skateboard blooper “Scrape” clip or — though I think this band blows — CKY’s Jackass greatest hits clip for “96 Quite Bitter Beings.” Or for that matter, Exhibit A: the entire Jackass series itself. Good old stupid, dumb fun is often the best kind of all.

In that spirit comes the video for “Replicants” by Nylithia (whose cover of the Mario Bros. “Castle” music we featured in September 2009), in which the Canucks decide to wreak havoc upon an electronics recycling yard with a forklift, each other, and good old brute force. Nylithia aren’t about to win any awards for cinematography with this 2008 video so I’m not sure it would register on the Axl O’Meter of video worthiness; it’s just really fun to watch! The song is awesome too, and upon further listening on their MySpace page so is the band; if fun thrashy-influenced-but-not-re-thrash bands like Revocation and Rumpelstiltskin Grinder mean anything to you I’d be surprised if you didn’t instantly love Nylithia. Look out for a new album from them in the near future.
