anyone?

Vampire Weekend
Yeah I have to agree - love them love them love them.......seen em with the Shins - wicked
I really like them
haven't seen them live yet but I want to.
missed them
supporting the shins, hope I don't regret it.
You won't.
over-rated
do you love 'Graceland'?
Vampire Weekend are trendier than Paul Simon, but no better.
yeah woo
just thought the performance was very polished. I think if I had heard their stuff before seeing them I would have been even more impressed.
A really loveable sound in my opinion - good wholesome songs. aren't many new bands around who can write proper hearty songs like that. yeah, laods of fun!
I thought....
..they were superb when i saw them at the Borderline. and 'The Kids Don't Stand A Chance' is one of my favourite songs of the year.
love them
not so keen on the name though...
^ This
is the correct answer.
another band I can't really understand
the hype surrounding them...
^this
I saw them supporting the Shins.
Why does everyone rate them so highly?
They we're enjoyable. That's it. They gave me no reason to go buy their CD, quite bland and boring really.
hmm
they are pretty good, but a grower i reckon. and over-hyped.
