On March 3 that all changed. Vampire Weekend—a band once famous for a mixed aesthetic of Ivy- League prep, Ralph Lauren logos and pastel ox- fords—released their much-anticipated fourth album on Friday dubbed “Father of the Bride.” While remaining true to form in many ways, we find the band trading in their worn-down boat shoes for top-shelf birkies with the release of their most recent and most prolific album. They had the formula down, though. Sprinkle some jangly, highlife-inspired guitar work over the bounce and sway of djembes, throw in some baroque backing and top it off with some deeply digital production work from band member Rostam Batmanglij and you’ve got yourself a hit. So why the change? To answer that question, let’s go back to 2006. This was the year the four members of the group first met and graduated from Columbia University. The original lineup placed frontman Ezra Koenig on guitar, Chris Baio on bass, Chris Tomson on drums and Rostam Batmanglij fill- NICK KNIVETON—THE SANTA CLARA ing anywhere in-between—guitar, keyboards, SUNSET SALUTATION: Students practiced yoga poses on the lawn between Swig Residence Hall and McLaughlin Walsh Residence Hall on Monday, AP drums, you name it. May 6. The session was for yogis of all experience levels and used exercises in mindfulness to improve focus, reduce anxiety levels and flexibility. In its earliest stages, the band was only a small rap project between Koenig and Tomson onto which Baio and Batmanglij later attached themselves. While their first work carried with it a true musical integrity, it was more or less just a nutty experiment for them. As Koenig remarked Lecturers and Adjuncts Speak Up to The Feed, “It’s so just fundamentally absurd with song names like Oxford Comma.

Original soundtrack by 1987 World Beat band El Jefe and The Executive Look, featuring contributions by members of Aa, Asobi Seksu, Birthday Boyz, Vampire Weekend and Julianna Barwick. http://www.blondesinthejungle.com Long Synopsis The film begins silently, the camera wandering through the jungle. We hear a distant drumming and follow the sound to reveal Armani Rivette, a Zack Morris-looking drug-dealer, shirtless, dancing alone to the music in his headphones. A title appears: “HONDURAS 1987.” Sitting on a porch are Jerome, Chino and Amber. Jerome is the teen child of white expats and Chino and Amber (brother and sister, 18 and 19 respectively) are visiting him from New York. They are lazily finishing their breakfast. A waterfall rumbles in the distance. They smoke drugs and listen to the radio as Jerome translates the show they're listening to. It is the story of the Children's Crusade, how thousands of young people in the middle ages went on a quest to Jerusalem only to be swindled, sold into slavery, and drown in the Mediterranean Sea.
