I would never condone punching a nun in the face, just as I would never condone listening to the new Vampire Weekend. I remember listening to their debut about 25 months ago, and it being really catchy, but way too pop. Once they hit it big with the greeks, I quickly lost interest, and listening to them now hurts my ears.
Hey, there is nothing wrong with being a music snob, right? That is why most of us are here.

There is a special place in Heaven for Music Snobs (Vinyl record waterfalls, Playlist awards night and we no longer have ears, but spaekers turned inward to our brains where every over dub can be noticed and orgasmly appreciated). Damn, wish I did beliveve in heaven....
I met a relative of one of the MGMT dudes in Memphis, according to him "Kids" was written when he (the one from Memphis) was 12yrs old and was an X-mas song called "Christmas Presents Under the Tree" that he would perform in front of the family. Anyways, I dig the new album - but last time I saw them (2nd time somehow?) they were okay, although they did play 'Til Tuesdays "Voices Carry" which is a fuckin' awesome song no one seems to talk about.
BTW should this thread not be in the Lineup/Artists?

As I've mentioned in other threads.
Oracular Spectacular - not a fan
Congratulations - love it (and i ain't talkin' bout 'dat coldstone creamery size)
I figured I'd give Congratulations a try, expecting to immediately hate it, but I love it.
As for Vampire Weekend, the whole "70 degree weather in [charleston]" helped me enjoy their first album a few weeks ago. The new album I'm not too much for, though. (I think Vampire Weekend and MGMT are ying-yanging here). However, I like Cousins more than any single song on the first album (yet it doesn't beat my love for Ladies of Cambridge, the Mansard Roof b-side).
