Description

Vampire Weekend have been a band of interest ever since Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa came out. The band’s name originated from the lead singer’s short film, and from the looks of their trailer, we can all be happy with their choice to stick to audio. With that said, their personality comes across with strength, and with their tour with The Shins and their release of their second album Contra this year has made them a big name around towns of musical savvy.

If you listen carefully to this album, you’ll hear the energy of The Strokes, the indie sound of Belle and Sebastian, and you’ll realise they seem to have this newfound British rock that has taken the charts over. Hidden within their tracks is a sense of intelligence and wit that adds to the oomph that the percussion and the pleasant electric guitar effects, all held together with a sincere soul.
