September 15, 200915 yr :o So soon? I guess it will've been a two year gap since their debut by then, but it doesn't seem that long at all! Exciting indeed.

November 11, 200915 yr Half the album is now on the internet, in LQ live versions. And also Boulevard Du Automne, which was recorded at the same time as Contra, and does not sound like a Vampire Weekend song at all :S. But it is amazing, as is White Sky :wub:.
November 12, 200915 yr I just LOVE their album artwork, they have really nailed it on the head! So so so beautiful... Vampire Weekend that is!
January 4, 201015 yr It's streaming on their myspace, even though there were only 3 tracks i hadn't heard until now. White Sky is just amazing btw, really <3. Edited January 4, 201015 yr by Harve
January 5, 201015 yr Early favourites are 'Taxi Cab', 'Run' and 'I Think Ur a Contra'. :wub: Brilliant second album. VW really are something else.
January 5, 201015 yr AMAZING album! What the hell is happening with all these gorgeous leaks these days?! Delphic, Yeasayer, Los Campesinos (I've grown to love it :wub: ) and now this. <3 My fave is White Sky so far.
January 6, 201015 yr The album is very very good. The first one was basic, but this one is more progressive with more unique instruments and some minor electro chords too. My favorite track on there is "Run" :wub: :wub: It's so gorgeous. "Horchata", "California English", and "Giving Up The Gun" are all very good too. :wub: I wouldn't mind if any track became the next single. I still don't get why they chose "Cousins" as the lead single though - it sounds like "A Punk II".
January 17, 201015 yr I quite like this album so far. It's not as good as the first one, but to be honest I wasn't expecting it to be. I do agree that Cousins is a bit of a re-hash of A-Punk. Horchata and American English are just as good as when I heard them live.
