polkahard Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Love them. I especially like Ladies of Cambridge and M79. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimixxx Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I love them also, think I'm late to get this album but it's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I've heard of them, and heard a couple tracks, but didn't like what I heard enough to download the rest of the album. Just another NME hyped band Can I change my opinion and say they are a rather lovely band with a good album :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaths_friend Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 i can understand why people dont like them. they are pretty average live on stage but so were other bands who broke through last year with awesome debut albums. so i just forget about their ability on stage and focus on their brilliant debut record. from go to woe its almost perfect. its catchy in an un-annoying way.

RedGirl76 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I'm really surprised at people's comments about them live. I saw them in October and thought they were great. Considering they only have one album and a lot of the crowd only new the singles, they put on a really good set. They also did a cover of Fleetwood Mac's Everywhere that was really fun. Outside of Coldplay, their's was my favourite album of 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nothingtoseehere Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Yay! I didn't realise they had a thread here... I love love LOVE Oxford Comma, M79 and A-Punk. They definitely are refreshing and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorrificAttack Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 First album is great but I wish they weren't making a 2nd, it's just gunna be the exact same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaths_friend Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 thats the vibe that i got from listening to the debut. it just doesnt feel like they have the potential to make a second record which is just as good. i hope i am proven wrong but its unlikely.

RedGirl76 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 They didn't really blow me away when I saw them at Glastonbury last year in the rain :) Maybe the rain didn't help... maybe cuz u saw them early in their touring career. i saw them in december so they were improved Glad someone else agrees with me, they were fantastic in late October!

Lyric Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 I either hear that they are really great and refreshing, or that they're repetitive and annoying... so I always go back and forth on whether to try to get into their album. I've listened to some of their stuff. They do have a refreshing, relaxing sound, but I feel that they can indeed be a little repetitive too... So I'm not sure of what I think of them. :confused: Oxford Comma definitely very catchy in particular for me... :dead: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 maybe cuz u saw them early in their touring career. i saw them in december so they were improved Also because it was in the rain. It's a tad hard to hear when your ears are covered with a hood:P But Glastonbury + Rain = makes the experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halokiti Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I love Vampire Weekend. Though does anyone else think they sound a little like Paul Simon during his African music period in the 80s. I love pop mixed with a little orchestral. The "new" song they played during the Jimmy Fallon show taping I attended sounded a lot like the stuff on the first album. I hope they have some more tricks up their sleeves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
