The News: A Mistaken For Strangers Musical (?)
The National's frontman, Matt Berninger, hired his younger brother of nine years, Tom, to join the band on tour as a roadie. Tom then took it upon himself to turn his experience into a rock documentary, Mistaken For Strangers. Apparently the Berninger brothers were approached to create a Broadway adaptation of the experience. So who do they cast? None other than Ted Danson and Zach Galifianakis, clearly. Then they documented the experience in a Funny or Die video, naturally.

The Song: "Tied Up, Tied Down" by TEEN
If you haven't already jammed out to TEEN's "Tied Up, Tied Down," now is the time, especially with the unveil of their new music video. The track, off their The Way And Color album, is filled with synthy '70s vibes and dreamy harmonies. As for the video, it's a surreal take on teenage nostalgia, filled with equal parts teenage delinquency and makeout sessions. The only disappointment? The lack of a Parker Posey cameo.
