Their first album drops on the 29th so I thought I'd make this.
I really like their sound, the album leaked and it's awesome.
They've released two singles and an EP last year.
I think they deserve recognition, though I'm aware that they're nothing that special.
QuoteVampire Weekend is an indie rock band from New York City signed to XL Recordings. They came to public attention via a variety of music blogs, first on New York's EAR FARM and then four months later on Stereogum, leading many to cite them as another example of the "blog band" phenomenon. The band is influenced by both African popular music and Western Classical Music. They describe their genre of music as "Upper West Side Soweto", performing such songs as "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa," which references Congolese soukous music.
They've released two singles:

I like their sound as well. I heard both of their singles.
And that's when I fell in love with A-Punk.
I can listen to that song all day.

They're interesting. They remind me of a strange versian of The Strokes... and a mix of something else... something pop. *thinks*
