By far my favorite VW to date. A relatively compact album with 10 songs (RT 48 mins). Each song is single-worthy. I thought about how many songs they had to write in total to arrive at these ten lovingly crafted gems. Not one second wasted in its entirety. It does not jump out at you after the first listening, but I dare you to stop playing it once you get hooked into the songs' intricacies.
Thank you for your feedback

In love with Ezra's voice. Classical is the song I play on repeat. Great album
Previously enjoyed Vampire Weekend from a far. Now I'm hooked.
Lyrics are meaningful. Fun, intellectual band

Vampire Weekend continues to grow and make exciting music. Always pushing themselves, the results show it.

In terms of songwriting and lyrics, this is a great one for sure, but there are times where the production gets in the way of songs. That heavily distorted guitar will make its way into the tracks like a crescendo. For the most part it’s ok, but for songs like Capricorn it feels like too much. Connect is awesome but the ending is so manic that I have a hard time finishing it, and the ending of Pravda once again introduces some loud atonal guitar that detracts from the track rather than adds to it. Regardless, the music is still strong enough to shine through the choices here.

Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2024
This band has always been nothing if not intelligent. Although some dismissed them as pop one and dones with their first two albums, they quickly proved they were always a much more in-depth and complex than pop driven band with their third album "Modern Vampires of New York.". Their next album, "Father of the Bride" wasn't exactly a disappointment, it just wasn't much of a progression from MVONY either.

This new album, "Only God Was Above" is about as addictive as it gets. I simply can't stop listening to this album, the whole thing, no skipped songs. It's just that good. The first three songs are all absolute perfection, and you'll have them all stuck in your head quickly. There's no short way to say this: buy this album, then listen to it until it clicks.

One of the reasons to buy an actual record rather than simply stream the music is because the albums are often mastered with greater dynamic range and the music isn't compressed and brickwalled as producers and bands somehow feel the need to maximize the loudness of the recording. Sadly, the vinyl version of Only God Was Above Us is just as bad as streaming when it comes to too much compression and loudness. Unlike earlier Vampire Weekend albums there is no nuance or range which robs the music of much of its appeal. Shame on the band for allowing this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reseña del Doble Vinilo 'Only God Was Above Us' de Vampire Weekend
Reviewed in Spain on June 19, 2024
*****
El quinto álbum de estudio de Vampire Weekend, 'Only God Was Above Us', se presenta en una edición especial de doble vinilo que es un verdadero regalo para los sentidos. Este lanzamiento no solo celebra la evolución musical de la banda, sino que también ofrece una experiencia auditiva inmersiva y rica en detalles¹.

La apertura grandilocuente con 'Ice Cream Piano' establece el tono para un álbum que es ambicioso y sofisticado, pero al mismo tiempo accesible. La influencia de la música tradicional india Raga se hace evidente en canciones como 'Capricorn', donde la melodía y el pesimismo lírico recuerdan a Cat Stevens en su período de 'Tea for the Tillerman'.

La experimentación es clave en este álbum, con tendencias jazz y bossanova en 'Connect', y el uso (y abuso) de piano sampleado que lleva a giros inesperados. 'Prep-School Gangsters' representa la compleja personalidad del grupo, con guitarras que oscilan entre surf rock y new wave, combinadas con baterías estilo marcha y el habitual falsete de Ezra.

El doble vinilo permite una apreciación más profunda de la instrumentación adicional - trompas, saxofones, cuerdas - que enriquecen cada pista. La calidad del vinilo asegura que la visión artística de la banda se transmita con la máxima fidelidad, preservando la integridad de la grabación original.

En resumen, 'Only God Was Above Us' en doble vinilo es una obra maestra que refleja la madurez compositiva y sonora de Vampire Weekend. Es una adición valiosa para cualquier coleccionista y un testimonio de la habilidad de la banda para reinventarse y prosperar a lo largo de los años.

Buon CD di questo interessante gruppo indie rock americano. Suoni moderni, incisione di elevata qualità. Non si tratta certo di un capolavoro ma comunque il CD è piacevole all'ascolto e si nota una discreta originalità. Consigliato agli appassionati del genere. Consegna del prodotto in tempi molto celeri.
