Click here to view the embedded video. God damn you Vampire Weekend. Why do you make it so hard for me to defend my positive feelings towards your material? Why do you constantly feel the need to remind me that I didn't go to Princeton (or Cornell or Dartmouth or Bryn Mawr)? Why do you have to rub your madras shirts and clever ironicism and frenetic energy in my midwestern face? I understand that I would be 30% more clever with a degree from an Ivy League school (or even someplace that [...]

Everybody's favorite preppies are back with a new song.

[MP3] Beach House Norway Analysis of the Cultural and Critical Impact of this Song: This mp3 is the 'beginning/launching point/kickoff' of the 2k10 music season. The first step on an annual cycle to attempt to understand 'who is the best/most culturally relevant/buzzworthy/meme-able' band of the year. It is this cycle which gives the blogosphere purpose, giving us a reason to live/evaluate/judge even though 'time' is irrelevant on the internet. Beach House's PR/marketing team should be commended for setting the tone for 2k10. In [...]
If you're a wannabe Wampire then put on your Vampire Hands and plastic White or Red Fang(s)-better yet, quickly get yourself some Meth Teeth , which will actually help you become nocturnal too-and make sure to head out to see Twilight: New Moon tonight with hoards of screeching, gothed out tweenage girls, or maybe sometime this Vampire Weekend . To help get you even more vamped up, here's a video of a real life "vampire" (I suspect she's not actually undead, just super [...]
(Slightly overrated in my opinion) Indie darlings Vampire Weekend recently announced the release of their new album, Contra, due out Jan. 12, 2010. And if there are any Sydney, Australian readers out there, they're playing a free show in Australia on Nov. 23rd.

Oh, Vampire Weekend . Those quirky, chirpy hipsters from New York City we all know and love are gearing up to release their second album, 'Contra', on XL Recordings in January 2010. And they've just released the video they filmed to go with the first single to be released from the new album. Called 'Cousins', it's a hoot. If you liked the immediacy of 'A-Punk', I have a feeling you'll take a shine to this instantly. I myself caught the promo video, oh, like 5 times yesterday when [...]
This is the video for Vampire Weekend 's new single 'Cousins'. It turns out that this was just a 'teaser' or 'taster' for their new album, Contra, which is a shame as it's far more interesting than this. When that familiar guitar figure kicks in at the 45 second mark we felt a strange sense of sadness and disappointment, like when Bambi's mum died. The video is much more interesting, what with all the camera work and face-changing technology (well, they use masks, which is probably the least technological aspect about the [...]

Hace apenas cuatro días les presentábamos el primer single oficial del disco Contra que los chicos de Vampire Weekend filtraron a sus fans de manera anticipada. Bueno ahora el video oficial de " Cousins" ya está rotando en internet. El clip es simple, pero está bastante prendido, muestra a la banda interpretando el tema ante la cámara, pero moviéndose todo el tiempo sobre un riel que los pasea a través de un callejón. Vean ustedes qué les parece. Ahora sólo [...]

Vampire Weekend has finally unveiled their new single, Cousins , the lead off their sophomore album "Contra" dropping this January. It's a rollicking, classically-Vampire-Weekend jam, instrumentally right on (it even has a little Christmas-inspired breakdown at the end!) and while it doesn't immediately strike as anything that much better than any of their previous singles, it's pretty funky & we're mostly feeling it! Cousins- Vampire Weekend (ZS) Horchata- Vampire Weekend Cousins music video: me & [...]

With the 2010 edition of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival scheduled to get underway a little less than five months from now, we are finally starting to get an idea of what the lineup will look like. According to a source with knowledge of the festival's plans, Muse will serve as a headliner for the Indio, CA event, set to take place from April 16-18. This will mark the British outfit's first appearance at Coachella since 2004 and will come amidst what will likely be a summer chock-full of tour dates in support of [...]
Simple-sounding song structures always impress me. I believe it's quite difficult to write a good "pop" song. A song that everyone likes without losing an element of credibility. The legends of surf-rock definitely had that ability and I'm glad to see surf making a resurgence. I've been listening to a lot of this surf-inspired garage/indie rock and here are some of my choice selections. Girls have received a lot of press lately for their very-NSFW video for "Lust for Life", but this is a band I just can't get out of my head, [...]
