The term "way too much free time" comes to mind. It's the Muppets after a horrifying weedwhacker episode! Complete with Statler and Waldorf in the top right corner.

Poor audio compression isn't doing this video any favours, that's for sure.

I saw the Polyphonic Spree a few years ago when they opened for David Bowie. I actually quite liked them. They looked like a cult, in their white robes, and all. Bowie advised not to accept any Kool-Aid they might offer.
