(Music Video Encylopedias) Trying to Figure out who Two *Euro* Bands Are (late 90s)

In the late 90s when I was still a relative youngling I remember there were two music videos I was fond of but I didn't keep track of the artists and unfortunately they aren't that famous. Or I should say they are more like Coldplay had they made a blib on the radar with Yellow.

Band Numero Uno

Music Video is simple- basically 4 or 5 dudes running around a deserted high rise esque /office building. They are all wearing black. One of the lead singers or the leader singer is a black dude with dreadlocks. Sounds a bit like Seal but not quite. I get the feeling they were either scottish or british.

Band Numbero Deuce

Unfortunately this is another british band(there are a lot). The video almost seems inspired by All is Full of Love. Whats going on is essentially a bunch of people encapsulated in a test lab. I feel like they might have a slight mannequin look but I can't remember. The song is about infection and of course each person gets infected, but its more sad/surreal in tone as opposed to anything horror-like.


If anyone has any clues....first band is definitely not SevenDust(they aren't european either so..).... :) And its way before the time of Bloc Party (and the guy had much longer hair)...

The songs both had a rather sad alternative/electronic vibe to them.

Note: I've done a lot of google searches and had no luck. Obviously because what I have is so vague, but was hoping what I have might ring a bell in someones head.

thanks for reading even if you don't know :mrgreen:
