I don't think they're the worst thing, but I agree that they don't generally do anything of value. Much of the time, they feel like they're there just to grab attention. It's also not rare for music videos to not even match the song all that well - I mean they technically match the lyrics, but it might still feel very off, and that's probably because music video production can probably be very detached from actually writing the song. For these reasons, I don't watch a lot of music videos. I'm sure there's some genuinely good music videos as well, but I'm not too interested in trying to find them.
That said, lyric videos are something I have more appreciation of. Obviously they're not all great either, but they tend to feel less pretentious, and it feels like they can do cooler stuff visually without taking away from the music.
