Yet, it's hard to deny their infectious, "happy" Afro-pop melodies that seem [...]

When Ace decided to step down earlier this year I got the call up to the big leagues after toiling over my own indie-jam blog for something like two and a half years to share daily writing duties with Scotty and have enjoyed every minute of bringing my ...

Available digitally as of this very moment but physically on December 15th, 'Cousins' is Vampire Weekend's newest single and it's just been given a video. Taken from their forthcoming January 12th follow-up L. P Contra, the track is short, spunky and full of typically VW bombast.
