Nice, I see that you guys are now embracing music outside of the genre that this site was founded on. That being said, I have to say that Vampire Weekend's "Contra" is another solid release from this band. It takes what made the debut album a breath of fresh air and expands upon that with some new and adventurous textures. Give it a spin and keep an open mind, you will not be disappointed.
