New Pornographers enlist comedians on new single

Canadian indie supergroup the New Pornographers grab indie comedy greats for their new video.

Plot-wise, the clip for their new single ‘Moves’ is another addition to the long pantheon of ‘mocking rock star success’ videos, but the hook is cute.

The band have got stars from indie comedy (and even other musicians) to impersonate them during their rock n’ roll rise and fall.

Film stars Paul Rudd and Bill Hader open the clip, and from then it’s a game of ‘Spot the hipster comedian’ – from Todd Barry to SNL’s Horatio Sanz to The Daily Show’s Wyatt Cenac, John Hodgman and John Oliver.

Indie punk icon Ted Leo also appears through the entire clip, but you’ll get bonus points if you pick who he plays before the credits roll.

'Moves' is the latest single from their 2010 album Together.
