03/VAMPIRE WEEKEND/FATHER OF THE BRIDE
Father of the Bride is a splendid work of art that feels like returning to a good book whenever you press play. Each song here is a beautiful poetic statement. Each song here is a wonderfully written, vivid piece of prose set to music that is made all the more vibrant by the buoyancy of Ezra's narration and the band's flawless mixing of various musical sounds and influences. From the infinite grooves and shining Americana songbook feel to the funk like jam band flourishes. They come together like Keats & Yates to provide a pointed written statement on love, both its rise and its fall, with a stunning clarity and colorful mindset that leaps off the page and takes flight everytime.
