Vampire Weekend - Father Of The Bride (May 3, 2019) Album • Page 13

They are all good, I wouldnt want the whole album to sound like Sunflower but I’m sure it’ll be great in context

 

All in on this. 4/4. Really excited for the rest of this to drop.

 

Yea this is literally right up my alley. I’ve been a VW guy since day one, but I love when a band grows with you. They’ve gotten better and better and the 70s classic rock/jam influence is just top notch for me.

Hook up eccentric genre bending albums with short tracks like this to my damn veins.

 

I didn't realize they released album art and yeah, it's pretty awful. Looks like an earth day shirt you'd get in elementary school

 

Digging the four songs.
Not digging the art.

 

I’m gonna hold off for the album for the rest of the songs.

In regards to the artwork, I feel like they can’t not know what they’re doing...

...right?

It seems like the cover of a 90’s educational VHS.

And I’m not necessarily mad about it.

 

Yeah the cover seems pretty on brand for them, I actually like it

 

like the cover

also, will hold off from listening to any new songs before release - I trust these guys, I can wait

 

The album artwork fits the music we’ve heard. And now I wouldn’t change the artwork for anything.

 

Whatever the photo is on the inside of the album cover is what I’ll change it to, as it apparently is more “on brand” than this.

 

That's exactly why I like it. haha.

 

I wish ordered the Spotify variant.

Also I can’t stop playing big blue.

 

Where do you find the Spotify variant? Searching on google. Can’t find it.

 

They sent me an email with a link. It’s half green/half blue.

 

[PREORDER] Spotify Exclusive: Father of the Bride Blue/Green Vinyl LP

 

if everyone really needs alt album art

 

Doesn’t Ezra have an Apple Music radio show? Surprised they had a Spotify exclusive thing.

 

Alright guys, what did you think of the songs released so far?

I'm honestly kind of scared for the album, because I haven't been the hugest fan of the singles thus far.

2021 and Big Blue were pretty good, but they were nowhere near the level of production that we saw on their previous albums. I know that it absolutely has to do with Rostam leaving, because he really added that electronic element to their music which I loved.

 

Yeah dude, Sunflower kinda scared me. Their guitar melody parts are kind of weak, idk, I think I'm just obsessed with their older sound.

 

Harmony >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 2021 > Blue > Sunflower

but Sunflower has grown on me

 

Really? Alright alright, I'll give it another shot! For me it's Blue > 2021 > Harmony > Sunflower.

Do you think they're releasing the best songs rn, or there are better songs in store?
I'm like really anxious for the album because this is my favorite band lol

 

it sounds like you are overthinking and worrying too much, there are still 14 more songs after these ones, wait for the whole album to judge

 

Yeah and I'm not really a fan of how Sony is pushing themselves onto everything. Like why does that Sony logo have to be there in the music video??

 

Okay yeah you're right LOL I've been waiting a long time for this okay!!!

Tell me then, what's your favorite Vampire Weekend song?

 

I can near guarantee that Sony didn't "make" them do anything, the band have the logo where it is for aesthetic reasons
