The perfect example of indie from New York.
Vampire Weekend has reached a mature sound.
Fusing Afro-pop rhythms with a classical aesthetic, this album is both urban and introspective. The intelligent and sophisticated pop songs transcend the boundaries of mere indie rock and have become a benchmark for music in the 2010s. The album's perfection is a worthy Grammy Award winner.
