Vampire Weekend


Well i was going to wait for the weekend but i thought if i could get this as close to Halloween as possible it'd seem more fitting. Vampire Weekend hails from New York, though you would most likely never guess this. Their music has distinct British and African roots. Some songs would likely classify as reggae similar to some of Sting's work. Other tracks may remind you of The Beatles or any other classic rock group from the 60s or 70s. Wherever their sound comes from, it doesn't matter since it comes together so harmoniously. This is some indie-rock you do not want to miss.

Lucky for you (and thanks to their
MySpace) i have the first four tracks from their album.

Mansard Roof - Vampire Weekend
Oxford Comma - Vampire Weekend
APunk - Vampire Weekend
Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa - Vampire Weekend
