Tom Scharpling, host of The Best Show of WFMU, directed this hilarious extended video for Ted Leo and the Pharmacists' "Bottled in Cork," the second single from their latest album, The Brutalist Bricks. Paul F. Tompkins, Julie Klausner, and John Hodgman star alongside the band. The video chronicles the group's attempt to release their music from the confines of its box by bringing it to the musical theater. Punk rock hilarity ensues. As for the music itself? It's a chunky slice of power pop as solid and consistent as anything else the band has put out to date.
