year: 2013
tones of: the shins, paul simon, the beatles

favs: obvious bicycle, unbelievers, step, diane young, don't lie, hannah hunt, ya hey
note: if your band name is vampire weekend, using "vampire" again in an album title is a bit much, no? and this from a band full of columbia language arts majors. tsk tsk.
