Fred Armisen Interviews the Lonely Island for Pitchfork TV (Video)

The Lonely Island's debut album, Incredibad, is funny in waves (mostly in the songs that have been around for a while), but, even with a song called "Jizz In My Pants," isn't really awkward--it's pretty confident in its faux-hip-hop hysterics. This video interview of the group by Fred Armisen for Pitchfork TV makes up for that--it's resolutely awkward as Andy Samberg and company talk about seeing each other's pricks (they settle on that since it's an Internet show), their album, and Radiohead (Armisen lets you know who they are) before Armisen signs off by saying Pitchfork is shutting down for good. It's the most awkward interview you'll watch all day. [Pitchfork]
