Vampire Weekend are ready for their close-up with “A-Punk” video
Gone To The Blogs, Music News, Up-And-Coming Acts, Video
Up until now the whole Vampire Weekend palavar has been big on blog hype (guilty) and slightly light on signifiers that they’re ready to embrace mainstream success. That looks set to change.
Firstly, their debut album is set for release at the end of the month. Secondly, following the low-fi Duran Duran aesthetics of the “Mansard Roof” video, the “A-Punk” clip is a comical little number with jerky, high-speed movements and more costume changes than a Kylie show. Looks like the onslaught might be about to get a little more MTV-friendly.
