It just came out, anyone heard it? I think it is pretty damn awesome. A bit more eighties sounding than their debut, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with that! Oh, and make sure to do drugs. KIDDING! Roll Eyes

the only complaint i have are all of the 1-2 minute ambient intros. i feel that the music is too poppy and conventional to warrant that type of contrast, and it feels out of place. the actual songs however, are very solid... with about 5-6 down-and-out perfect pop songs. though p4k's 8.8 review is a little high, i highly recommend.

Yeah, i can see how the ambient stuff would put some people off, but i love it. And as for p4k, its a great indie site but their reviews are all over the place. I would say this album is a low eight probably. And anyone who gives Vampire Weekend a score higher than a six can't be trusted.

I like this. If they just live a bit more dangerously on the next one, they'll have a dead ringer for album of the year.
