At last memories of the feeling you got from Vampire Weekend`s first album come flooding back with their new album Contra, but this time their sound has been changed with a few more synthesizers, fast paced precussion which create styles such as Reggae,Hip Hop and Electro.
On their 2008 debut album Vampire Weekend introduced us to a new pop genre of music, as every track on their album had perfect, unique detail, just like their buttons on their shirts done up right to the collar. With their new album they bring that same perfection.
Their fiirst track on the album; Horchata says exactly what we are feeling " ..here comes a feeling you thought you`d had forgotten..". The third track on their new album is Holiday, a bursting sunny song, which brings back a sweet summer vibe, Vampire Weekend is the perfect soundtrack to get you geared up for the summer and to keep you content. Vampire Weekend are known for their songs about having girl crushes, with this album they do not only just bring smooches on the campus, but rides in taxi cabs, smoking a joint with a best friend and finding yourself together the next day in bed and finally finding out that two people want different things in a relationship "..You wanted good schools And friends with pools You're not a Contra. You wanted Rock' n' Roll, Complete control Well, I don't know. Never pick sides, Never choose between two, But I just wanted you...."
Vampire Weekend have a suitcase full of deep thoughtfull songs, with not just crushes on girls but more mature things. Its like they have transformed from their vibrant colour, collar tops to a more bold, less vibrant colour and tighter shirts.
I am sure Vampire Weekend have potential and still have a lot more songs than tricks up their sleeve to come.
Best tracks of their album contra: White sky, Taxi cab and I think you`re a contra.
