"vampire Weekend" is a great,refreshing pop album. It reminds me a little SKA, not for the punk rock sound but for evident Afro Beat inffluences.Like The Specials, and the Madness. They describe their music like "Upper West Side Soweto", but essentialy their debut and album is a great song-album, with grimmy, fresh pop style.and principally unpretentious. they are great and very talent but they dont want us to see that. And i think that´s the secret.The music listeners (like me)appreciate that.
too bad, they're american! American bands rule! The music Europe is good at is electronic, that's it! just kidding, European music is the same as American pretty much.
fuck I'm glad I saw this show. I actually had to slip the bouncer a twenty. I'm not kidding. And I'm not bragging either... it was his idea. I never would have thought of it.
I think this song sounds best live when it's played in a smaller venue like the one in this video.

the drummers energy is what i like the most about their live performances, him and erza just hype up the crowd so much
