Lupin the Monkey Majik.
To elaborate on this post, because I want people to know why they should check it out, because I think it's cool, let me quote the first paragraph of the article it links to on Anime News Network:
The Japanese-Canadian rock group Monkey Majik has created an animated music video in which the band members meet the Lupin, Jigen, Goemon, and Fujiko characters from Monkey Punch's Lupin III manga and anime franchise. The Oricon website is already streaming the full 187-second video on Wednesday.
And here's a link to the video itself, on Oricon:

Character designs look a little like a cross between Alcatraz Connection (in fact, the song covered is the Alcatraz Connection English-lyrics version of the themesong), Mamo, and Monkey Punch's manga art, and the general feel of the animation reminds me just a tad of Gorillaz' video for 19-2000.
Enjoy!
