Discover Music: Vampire Weekend

Blog sensation, Vampire Weekend, are taking their long awaited shot at indie rock stardom. The NY foursome will release their self-titled debut this Tuesday. You can hear some full tracks on their MySpace page or preview and purchase the entire album on Amazon.com.

They're a great band that eludes any real genre labeling except the blanket genre of indie rock. Of course, that moniker has been thrown around quite a bit lately but if you liked Peter, Bjorn, and John's wonderful Writer's Block (and if you didn't what's wrong with you?) then check out the sunnier and slightly tropical sound of Vampire Weekend.
