I generally agree with you here, but the question is what makes an interesting and memorable video. A band performance vid can definitely be a good video that improves the enjoyment of a song, but will anyone remember it in a few months or years? Will people go out of their way to watch it and get their friends to watch it? If you want people to be engrossed and remember your work, you have to think more along the lines of making a short film, not just try to expand upon the music.
