Alkaline Trio is a punk rock band (according to Wikipedia) from Illinois, which explains why I’ve never heard of them. However, their single “Help Me” is incredibly catchy and the video for is pure steampunk goodness. You’ve got a supercharged steam-driven locomotive with a giant cowcatcher driven by a dastardly villain with a damsel in distress (Kat Von D) tied to said cowcatcher and a band of heroes with such cool devices as a monowheel, a jetpack and an airship. The graphics may be somewhat unimpressive but they certainly add to the comic book hero feeling of the story. I can’t stop listening/watching.

Enjoy!
