Afternoon Aural: Vampire Weekend
New York-based Vampire Weekend describe themselves as New Wave Punk Classical and “Upper West Side Soweto,” a reference to Johannesburg’s most famous township. We’re not sure we agree with the former, but we’ll give them the latter. So, without further ado, here’s Vampire Weekend with “Mansard Roof” and “APunk”
Avril is more “punk” than these guys….
well, considering Avril’s motivation for making music, I’d say Sigur Ros is more punk than she is.
Pop-Ska I’d say. Cute boys though, should be opening for Hanna Montana, wait, that sounded bitchier than I meant to. They have a long way to go to fuse punk and ska as the Clash did.
