Performance shots and Editing Ideas

My planned idea for editing was to have the typical on beat, fast paced, montage editing. However when watching some music videos I can up with the idea of starting the performance shots out as quite a calm and controlled performance and then like a lot of rock bands do when the music is big and loud over exaggerating the performance. Bands such as Muse and Foo Fighters do this all the time.
 
In Muse's Time is Running Out Video, when the music builds in the pre-chorus and becomes much bigger and louder in the chorus there performance is much more over exaggerated. Foo Fighters do something similar in there music video for Monkey Wrench, example below.
 
So when it comes to filming my performance shots I plan for me and my friends who are playing my other band members to give a much more over exaggerated, high energy performance so that it feels much more like a Rock music video rather than keeping a more controlled performance. This would allow me to work with some shots that keep to my genre and highlight the genre much more.
