[youtube _XC2mqcMMGQ nolink] So Vampire Weekend's self-titled debut was left on our doorstep yesterday. It's a pretty awesome album. If Paul Simon and Joe Strummer from The Clash ever had a baby, it would be a one-man band that sounds like Vampire Weekend. No it wouldn't. It would probably be in therapy all the time. Anyway...
The video for the first single A-punk was directed by superstar directorial duo Hammer & Tongs. One of them actually never uses deodorant because he thinks none can match the brilliance of his own body odour. Fact. (Really, his niece told me...)
