Is this part of some meme I missed? I'm thoroughly nonplussed.

That's it! The same footage over and over, changing hues sometimes. The 10 Years After blues boogie in the background intensifies, but that is it. There's no punchline or anythng. Unless it is some post-modern meta deal where the punchline is that there isn't one and I just spent over 7 minutes watching this thing....but now you don't have to!

The bass solo that opens the clip is curiously reminiscent (especially toward the very end, just before the band kicks in) of Morroccan gnawa music.
Otherwise, I can't help but notice that this thread is not going so well. But, if it's deleted, vron, don't flame out, OK? We still need you around here.

The number one referrer to that video is from a LiveJournal community devoted to Momus (the musician). The person who posted the video there appears to also be vronsky, under a slightly different username, who then lets loose with some nonsensical rambling follow-on comments.

That username being "count_vronsky." Methinks Asparagirl might be on to something here. MeFi detectives -- "power-up!"

wow, that video sucks. A lot. Normally, I even like somewhat stupid youtube videos, but that was kind of beyond the "meh" line. It least there was music to go along with my cleaning.

What about the music video for Ugly Cassanova's Things I don't Remember?
Warning, this is pretty twisted. NSFW.

It's really not that bad, there's even some interest to be had in the different overlays. I made it 2 minutes into it.
I'd add that it's safe for (most) workplaces.

356 views? I think it's impossible for a real video to have that few views without the poster being involved.

Think again. I know I've linked to very recently added, obscure (or just plain unpopular!) YouTube clips in several of my FPPs, and I wasn't "involved" in any of them, aside from putting them into MeFi FPPs.
