Vampire Weekend - Only God Was Above Us (April 5, 2024) • Page 19

Cocaine Cowboys medley

 

Married in a Gold Rush / All the Gold in California (Gaitlin Brothers) / Sin City (Flying Burrito Bros) / Cumberland Blues (Dead) / Possum (Phish)

 

How did I miss the Possum? I didn't hear that.

 

Can't get enough of that Mary Boone performance from The Daily Show.

 

More of a tease to my ear, they did the Possum...possum....possum... part with a different lyric

 

So good

 

Chipping away at some work with the full on Jam Band set from Vampire Weekend at Coachella playing. People give FOTB shit, but I think brought a lot to their live set and they are on a whole other level with the release of the new one. Cannot wait for the show this Summer.

 

Anyone have the Coachella video rip they could DM this poor soul who missed it live?

 

DM me

 

@irthesteve Any chance you're holding a link to the Justice set as well? Would super appreciate one, thanks man.

 

DM me

 

steve can i borrow $5

 

DM Drewski

 

Yea this might be their best record

 

I had a nightmare last night that the Primitive Radio Gods wouldn’t clear the drum sample for Mary Boone so the world never got to hear the track.

The horror.

 

album of the year

 

this is my favorite of theirs by a decent margin. Every one of their albums has 2-3 tracks that I find pretty irritating, usually a melody that annoys me or something. This one is legit 10 for 10 for me; even my “least favorite” tracks are a really enjoyable vibe I wouldn’t skip.

 

classical hitting quite hard immediately, still waiting for the rest to sink its teeth in.

 

thinking about Ezra's "Graceland"

 

Ughhh this album is so good

 

I haven’t had a chance to listen to it on vinyl yet despite buying it weeks ago maybe I’ll do that tomorrow

 

I'm sure many of you know, but I just learned today that "Step" interpolates this song. Very cool

 

love a good interpolation

 

This LP rules in a special way. The piano parts definitely shine brightest, but the rhythm section is right behind ‘em as a close second.
