In May, the National talked to Spinner about performing at an actual wedding, pictured on the cover of the 'Boxer' LP, during their Interface interview. In a similar vein, the group invited 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 Berninger told 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."
