For those of you who don't know, Vampire Weekend is an Indie band from none other than New York City. They debuted their first album, Vampire Weekend, in January 2008. Their fame was made through their hits, "A-Punk", "Oxford Comma", and "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" from that album.
The band took their music to a slightly stranger, but all-out new level with Contra. You could say that their imagination really took off with this album, but then again, they are ignoring the fascade of normality while turning toward a new and somehow undiscovered leaf of this genre with each song. Contra, an album of Indie rock is truely something that you will find singular and out of the ordinary.
