Because of Youtube's ban, some of them I will have to lead you to their VEVO account.
Of course when I first saw Guren, I was a tiny bit confused....as I usually am when it comes to the GazettE PV's. But I still liked the music video, I sort of liked interpreting what the meaning was and why was this girl painting the room white? A fan explained it on a forum, but I can't find the post right now [well, I'm just too lazy right now] so I'll try to explain it to the best of my ability.
Now this is a fan's interpretation, but considering what Guren is supposedly about it makes sense.
So the tap, is sort of like...the penis. So it's obvious what the white stuff is, right? This is where it got a little confusing to me, but I'll try my best to explain. So the girl represents the fetus, when she is in her red dress and when the room is still red-she is moving. Meaning she is alive. However there are different parts of the video, particularly when the band members are playing-she is wearing a white dress and the walls are painted white.
So fan theory is, which again might not be a theory at all and what it means is that....well when she is red and moving...she [the fetus] is alive. However, when the room is white and she is wearing white-she isn't moving. Which might indicate that she is dead, that the mother who is pregnant either had an abortion or a miscarriage.
Considering that Guren is written in the mother's point of view, the first thing Ruki sings is "Gomen ne" so the mother feels regret of this baby dying.
[Correction: The girl might be the embryo, though I'm not sure if there's a specific term they wanted to use for the girl.]
So Taion is still an enigma to me, meaning that I don't really fully understand it. Which is why I find myself watching it over and over again to see if I can figure it out myself. If someone knows the meaning to the PV, I would love to hear it. But whenever I look it up, it comes up with the theory that the song was written specifically about Junko Furata.
However, it was later proven that Ruki did not write the song about her. It's just a rumor that flew around, and was stated as fact so much that fans take that it as just that. He stated that the song is just about something that shocked both him and Reita, and he did not specify exactly what it was. There could be a possibility he saw the story of Junko Furata, but as far as I know he never confirmed this.
Due to the nature of the music video, I am certain that it has to do with some sort of kidnapping or killing of a young child. [It might not even be a girl, but who knows?]
One thing that stuck out to me was the butterfly, and I don't know why. Could do something to do with innocence, and it being taken away from the victim.
I really like this PV however, honestly it's one of my top favorites from them.
I might be a little bias when it comes this, because Chizuru is one of my favorite songs from the GazettE And off STACKED RUBBISH. The music video doesn't seem to be hard to interpret, I really liked the feel of it and honestly if I can be so.....fangirly [? is that a word? idk] I really think that the boys really looked good in this music video.
It seems to be a song about losing someone, wanting to be together but knowing that you can't. "Two people can't be together." My friend once translated this for me, but I've long since lost the translation so I can't really say.
I don't know what else to say about this PV, so I'll just move on to the next.
UGLY is one of my favorites out of their heavier songs, whenever I'm feeling in a bad mood I go and listen to this song to get all my anger out. And honestly out of their newer PV's, I do think that I like UGLY the best.
It's sort of obvious what the people in the PV represent, though I could be wrong about a few of them. The girl in the beginning who is smoking is PRIDE, the nun looking lady and the shirtless guy are LUST, the two-headed people are SLOTH, the guy shoving his face in the bowl GLUTTONY, the lady with the mirror was obviously ENVY, then there was GREED, and the guy who throws Pride is WRATH.
The seven deadly sins, which I found interesting. I was always waiting for Ruki to touch up on that subject, because I felt it was something he would do. And I'm glad he did it in this way.

That's it for part 1 of my favorite PV's, I'm sure I'll make a longer list but it's late and I need to go to bed.
So what are some of your favorite PV's of theirs?
