Fulsome prison blues

No new posts until finals, yeah?

Anyway, here:

Dear Vampire Weekend:
Please release your new album already so I can stop listening to the four potential new songs (Ladies of Cambridge, White Sky, Little Giants and Arrows) thus starting this whole album-gets-big-before-it's-released-to-an-absurd-degree-so-that-the-backlash-starts-around-the-time-of-its-release thing, because the songs on the debut had been around for minimum two years (and by that I mean out, not just in existence) and the new songs have been around for over a year at this point, meaning they aren't new they're just SOON TO BE RELEASED. This is silly. I really hope none of those songs are on the record, just to freak everybody out. We all know the sophomore album is going to be a let down, because the bigger the hype the smaller the result, so just get it over with and release those four songs with six filler songs and be done with it. Good sophomore albums don't come without severe alcoholism, crippling leg operations, cocaine addictions or the addition of a new member or subtraction of an old one. We know it. You know it. Move on.
Love
