highly recommended

This NY four-piece draw on their diverse backgrounds and interests, experimenting with African guitar music, the Western classical canon, hazy memories of Cape Cod summers, winters in upper Manhattan, and reggaeton. "Equal parts shruggy New York indie strumming and groovy Afro-pop, Vampire Weekend's organ-and-drum runs highlight narratives about relationships, punctuation, and sometimes both" - Spin. Named "Hot New Kids" in Rolling Stone's "Hot" issue. Vinyl contains MP3 coupon.

A Must Buy for Happy People

This album is wonderful: In the car, at the gym, prepping for a day/night out, at a party, on the go, etc. Get the picture? It's fresh, fun, witty and all over fantastic. Some of the best tracks are A-Punk, Oxford Comma, M79, and Walcott. The upbeat sound and catchy lyrics are paired with an original voice and perspective. I highly recommend it.

Vampire Weekend - Vampire Weekend

They may be fresh out of the Ivy League world, but this band of New York boys from Columbia University is making waves on the indie scene. People can't seem to get enough of Vampire Weekend's self-titled album, with its witty lyrics and afro-pop/new wave/indie sound. The band generated a fan base last year by playing shows around downtown NYC and circulating a demo. From synthesizers to the cello, the band's eclectic sound manages to captivate without betraying its innocent simplicity. The songs on the album are primarily a revamped version of those found on the original demo - including two new tracks, "M79" and "I Stand Corrected."

Ironic or not?

This album is a lot of fun. It's a quick and engaging listen, however I still haven't made up my mind if i think it's going to wear well in the long run. Probably this is the album that will remind me of the summer of '08, IF i hear it in a few years..

Solid Album Lacking that Something Special

Vampire Weekend's album is quite exceptional for a debut, but after listening to it four or five times I started thinking would this album of worked if it was Vampire Weekend's second or third album? Sadly the answer to that question was no which wasn't a big surprise because that happens with a lot of bands for example The Fratellis album Costello Music would of been an excellent sophomore album but you can't go back in time and stop them from making it. Vampire Weekend does have some amazing songs on here, but quite a few of them are mediocore and bland such as Bryn, I Stand Corrected, and The Kids Don't Stand a Chance. I will say that the good songs on the CD are amazing. My personal favorites are Oxford Comma, Campus, and Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa. I hope that on their next album they do amazing or they might not last that long.
