Arcade Fire, The Suburbs
"...a generously paced collection of meditations on familial responsibility, private disappointments, and fleeting youth..."
Availability: Everywhere melancholy indie rock is sold. Which is pretty much everywhere.
Price: $9.99ish
Coolness Factor: Medium. when one of your songs is featured in an ad for the NFL, you've lost significant chunks of your hipster cred. Even if you donate all the proceeds to Haiti.
Warnings: "Rococo rococo rococo rococo. Rococo rococo rococo rococo."
Joe Dante's The 'Burbs
`The 'burbs" tries to position itself somewhere between "Beetlejuice" and "The Twilight Zone..."
Availability: On DVD, or, for the impatient, on Netflix Instant View.
Price: Depends on if you want it sullied or unsullied. Unsullied is gonna cost you about $12.99
Coolness Factor: Low. The late 80s comedy aesthetic has aged about as well as the late 80s fashion aesthetic.
Warning: Tom Hanks.
