Last Week in Music | 2/17/08 – 02/24/08
February 25, 2008 // Last Week In Music

This week’s LWiM looks pretty complete, but it’s also kind of boring at the same time. The three new bands I’m listening to I’ve already posted about (Vampire Weekend, Grand Archives, and Dent May) and the rest of the bands are people I listen to all the time. So I’ve decided to throw up some streaming songs of some of these bands, and hopefully it’ll be new and exciting for some people.

  5. I had no idea Vampire Weekend sounded like The Arctic Monkeys minus the energy, innovation and cohesion. Is this really what all the hype is about?

  6. Yeah, they sound exactly like Vampire Weekend… They both have guitar players, and singers, and are all men… EXACTLY THE SAME.
