This album seems a little out of place here in the freezing morbid east coast winter, but after a couple of spins through it's starting to shine some rays of light. I like how the songs explore some open space allowing details to creep in with every listen. Similar subject matter to the first album here, but more stylized down the rabbit hole they were traveling through early on. All the influences are still present (Afro-pop, Graceland), but with a Vampire Weekend twist that we may learn to recognize as a sound all on it's own. Check out some of the new tracks on myspace, and pick up the album!
