Music Nibbs

Vampire Weekend. Yeah I know, they have been out for a couple years now, not the newest kids on the block, but figured I should give em a mention. Reason being because their newest album Contra has peaked in the US and UK at number one and for all the right reasons. Are they ska? Are they Indie? Who really cares, it's just fun music. Their 2010 album is much more mature and artsy then their previous attempt, filled with various styles yet keeping a pop like catchy tone that I think that may be one reason they have struck a chord in the mainstream. I for one, like them. I think their music is brilliant, and until I get sick of hearing "Cousins" and "Horchata" over and over again on the raido, I have nothing but nice things to say about this group. I posted two vids - A-Punk off their 1st self-titled album and "Cousins" off the new Contra record. Enjoy!

Oh and they are from NYC USA for all you who think this a UK band.
