RO: On re-assessment, Vampire Weekend are kinda good. *flameshield*

the high confessions album was pretty disappointing... there are some good moments (particularly on the opening and closing tracks), but overall i felt unmoved.

They're really overplayed for me (friends love 'em), and I wouldn't personally listen to them for fun, but I don't get the intense hatred.
I think it might honestly work in reverse, having really low influence, but don't take my word on it. I know you can turn pretty much everyone but Kreia, HK and anther party member I won't name to the dark side.

i've re-assessed that you guys must work for pitchfork.

Pitchfork like Vampire Weekend? That doesn't seem like them. I guess VW do sort of fit the "hipster" image, though, in the same way that MGMT do (as in ultra popular bands that kids somehow seem able to pass off as unknown and cool)
I hate Pitchfork anyway, so I probably shouldn't care.
