My hair looks fucking sweet in this wind. [x]

It’s kind of beautiful to hear the lead singer of your favorite band talk about his favorite band the way you feel about his own band. But the best part is when he says that he used to stroke the record that helped him find himself. I do the exact same thing. I stroke my The National vinyls the way he stroked Louder Than Bombs. I always had and I always will. We’re all the same and music is the best fucking thing ever. [x]

I’d be ok with just these loops for the next EL VY videos.

Brent Knopf: How do you get happiness then if you can’t buy it? Matt Berninger: You have to steal it from your friends. Knopf: Is that where my happiness went, did you steal it from me? Berninger: Next question. Knopf: Matt Berninger, in your next life, what would your career be, given that you messed this one up so bad? Berninger: Uh… I’d like to be a school teacher, actually. Berninger: Okay Brent, question for you, buckle your seat belts because it’s a hard one. What is the hardest part about your job that no one knows? Knopf: You mean besides doing all the work?
