Don't let the smile fool you. When members of Sigur Rós stepped into the NPR building to appear on the Bryant Park Project show, host Luke Burbank had his hands full trying to appease a band unwilling to talk. Burbank himself immediately wrote the interview off as "possibly the worst interview in the history of electronic media" in his blog. The best bit is where the struggling host asks vocalist Jónsi Birgisson about the "Hopelandic" language he sings in. If you're a fan of awkward comedy then you're in for a real treat - that is if you can last all five minutes and 49 seconds.
