The National, ‘Apartment Story’ video premiere on Spinner

A few months back, the National talked to Spinner about playing an actual wedding on the cover of the ‘Boxer’ LP, during their Interface interview. In a similar vein, the group invited along some friends and family to play able-bodied extras in the video for ‘Apartment Story,’ which chronicles the events of certain social functions. “We shot this in the basement of a church a few blocks from my apartment in Brooklyn,” singer Matt Berringer tells Spinner of the Banner Gwin-directed video. “We wanted to capture the sweet but awkward vibe of a wedding reception or singles mixer. [Gwin] knew exactly what we were going for, something between John Hughes and Krzysztof Kieslowski.”

Rouge Wave, ‘Lake Michigan’ video premiere on Spinner!

Bay Area indie-pop quartet Rogue Wave are back with a new album and a brand-new Malloy directed video, ‘Lake Michigan.’ The band journeyed to the mountainside outside of Los Angeles, and frontman Zach Rogue experienced enough to have stories for days. “Two crazy deer darted in front of the El Camino,” he tells Spinner. “And by the end of the shoot, we had a mud fight. [Also], there was a massive flat asphalt platform that overlooked L.A. It was our ‘Thelma and Louise’ moment. Would we take the plunge and drive off into eternity, or find the crew and eat a morning bagel?”
