Vampire Thanksgiving Weekend

For last year or so I've been awaiting Vampire Weekend's next album, not because I'm in love with the band, but mostly because I've been extremely curious about what they're gonna do next. Would they stick with the same sound or try something new? Where do they go from there? Well I've recently received a hint of what's to come, thanks to a tip from Spin Magazine. Vampire Weekend will be following up their eponymous debut with Contra, which drops January 12th.

So far I've listened to the first two singles from the album, "Cousins" and "Horchata". Both songs maintain the light feel of previous Vampire Weekend songs as well as some familiar instrumentation. "Horchata" includes electronic sounds and percussion that sound occasionally as though they were borrowed from an N64 game (Ocarina of Time?). "Cousins" sounds more like Vampire Weekend's debut material except a little sillier. The song is energetic and incredibly catchy and is accompanied by an equally fun and infectious video. Check it out.

Movies: A Serious Man

The latest Coen Brothers' film is dark comedy served black, no sugar. The movie follows a Jewish family man in 1967 who is plagued by misfortune after misfortune. Though this movie is pretty funny, sometimes it can be too bleak for its own good.

Fishy Business

So today I almost bought a goldfish. It was gold but it had black fins and and a little black spot just above his mouth. It looked a lot like Hitler. Needless to say, I was smitten. So I was so excited to buy little Adolf that I picked out a gallon bowl and a model wrecked WWII tank (they actually sell those) for him to play around in. Then the sales lady informed me that as he grew, little Adolf would need a bigger and bigger bowl. Even Nazi fish believe in Lebensraum. So, I had to give up on little Adolf. I wouldn't want him to be terrorizing the little French and Polish fish.

Coulda used more zombie killing. That's all I'm saying.
