The key to this Music Video concept is camera movement: the camera continuously tracks to one side, generally with no Jump Cuts, creating the impression that the scenes are on... um, a conveyor belt. The scenes themselves are often "slice of life" type settings or mockeries thereof, usually in a dollhouse-like set with literally No Fourth Wall.
Obviously, some film splicing is needed to create the illusion of nonstop camera movement. See also Tracking Shot.
Not to be confused with the Treadmill Video for "Here It Goes Again" by OK Go.

"I Only Lie When I Love You" by Royal Blood features an interesting variation, where the scenes loop in a non-linear fashion while still maintaining a continuous movement.

The Front Bottoms' video for "West Virginia" shows a house party shot with a Fish-Eye Lens that has the camera moving seamlessly from room to room, though the apparent location of things in the house changes with time.

For what it's worth, the room in question is very much un-pixellated in versions of the video found on YouTube, revealing an orgy taking place in the background. (Hence the reason MTV pixellated it, most likely...)

For Genesis' 2007 Turn It On Again tour, during performances of "The Carpet Crawlers", a video of pictures and film footage from throughout their career as a band scrolls behind them. Can be seen in the concert DVD, When In Rome.
