Death Cab Try On Short Shorts, Sweatbands, WhirlyBall For MTV

Ben, Chris, Jason, and Nick hopped inside bumper cars and took on the onerous task of learning how to play WhirlyBall as part of their 52 Bands/52 Weeks stint at MTV. We understand their Stereogum guest blogging stint was tough, but this looks tougher. Here's the introductory MTV promo, as hosted by Ben "Stretch" Gibbard.
