Try It, You May Like It!

New York Indie-Rockers Vampire Weekend came to my attention recently, and they're amazing! They first came onto the scene in 2007 with their debut single, "Mansard Roof" from their debut self-titled album, and wowed audiences and critics alike! Their follow-up "A Punk" was recently on the CW's monster teen-remake, 90210, and this song showed off Lead singer Ezra Koenig's unusual but somewhat charming voice and created a unique and uplifting sound! It also sort of reminds me of Sublime. But my favouite single from thew so far would have to be "Oxford Comma ". This cheeky track has some amazing instrumentals and mixes well with Koenig's cool voice. It's hard to describe this track cause it's...well...just random, but in a very good way!

Score: 8/10


American Indie-Rock outfit The Virgins formed in 2005 and the New Yorkers have been slowly rising ever since. Their 2008 EP release, "The Virgins", show cased some of the best Indie music that I've heard in ages! My favourite track would have to be "One Week Of Danger".
This track is soooooooo good and just so damn catchy!!! Lyrically and instrumentally it's 2:45 of pure bliss! This song is sort of like a new-age-indie anthem, with it being hard to resist the catchy chorus and electrifying verses! Definitely fit for success!

Score: 9.5/10
