Vampire Weekend are the latest band to unexpectedly defy genre and geographic expectations. Since the turn of the millennium, New York groups have reworked proto-punk sounds popularised by The Velvet Underground (The Strokes, Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs, Holy Hail), or rubbery punk-funk (The Rapture, !!!, Radio 4, LCD Soundsystem). But on this remarkable debut the latest NYC hopefuls clearly draw from a far deeper well of influences. The most overt feature of the VW sound is the refreshing adoption of Afrobeat percussion. This alone differentiates the quartet from their peers, but when added to a multitude of nautical references and other, often ambiguous, lyrics about delightfully esoteric subjects, the results are constantly rewarding.
Track Listing:
1. Mansard Roof - Vampire Weekend (2.07)
2. Oxford Comma - Vampire Weekend (3.15)
3. A-punk - Vampire Weekend (2.17)
4. Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa - Vampire Weekend

- Tracklist
- Their sound is truly heart-stoppingly new: their blend of rock and Afro-pop is as unusual as it is excitingly different. References from Congolese soukous music meet crashing riffs that would also suit the Strokes. But sometimes they also remind you of Talking Heads during their cosmopolitan phase. In doing so, they develop their very own sound, which pulls the rug out from under your feet, especially live, and is just as multicultural as it is indie
The musicians around singer Ezra Koenig met at Columbia University and realized that they all had an undivided love for Paul Simon's "Graceland" album and that Spanish pop music could not be missing from any of their mixtapes. After just their first few shows, the band became the new darlings of the big wide world of the internet. Vampire Weeke
