Vampire Weekend $15

Pure aural pleasure. This NY four-piece draw on their diverse backgrounds and interests, experimenting with African guitar music, the Western classical canon, hazy memories of Cape Cod summers, winters in upper Manhattan, and reggaeton. “Equal parts shruggy New York indie strumming and groovy Afro-pop, Vampire Weekend’s organ-and-drum runs highlight narratives about relationships, punctuation, and sometimes both” – Spin. Named “Hot New Kids” in Rolling Stone’s “Hot” issue.

Listen or buy Vampire Weekend from Amazon.

    You can listen to samples of their album on Amazon or try iTunes. Here’s a link to their site. All I can say is that I’m digging their music and am glad I stumbled onto it. Somehow I missed all the buzz and praise that they were getting from the likes of David Byrne and Lou Reed.
