« Autre Ne Veut @ the BrooklynVegan SXSW Saturday day party at The Main (pics, review) | listen to The Strokes' new album, 'Comedown Machine' »
Posted in music | tour dates on March 18, 2013
The May 7 release date for Vampire Weekend's third album, Modern Vampires of the City, and today the band have released two songs from it to hear, the mildly blown-out "Diane Young," and the more mellow "Step." You can stream them both below. The two songs will be on either side of a 7" single to be released April 9 as well.
Vampire Weekend will also be hitting the road this spring -- some dates with Tanlines, some dates with Haim -- and while no hometown NYC show has been announced yet, all announced dates are listed below.

@425 if you think going to an ivy league college requires a trust fund, then you was raised all wrong son.

@429 Sounds like you have a trust fund.

4:55 They did 3 sold out nights at radio city a few years ago, so my guess is either Barclays or a few nights in Central Park if it's during the summer.

Those cars are old. They are probably clunkers with no reusable parts inside.

I like VW, but don't care about either song. Second one is ok as a B-side, but the first one leaves me cold.

I wish I had gone to a private university. As much good as public education offers, the level of education really doesn't compare. The postgraduate opportunities are much better, too.
