SOLVED!Now you know why they’re called Vampire Weekend
Because if you’d ask how their weekend went, like me, their reply would always be the same:
IT SUCKED!
Did you find this nugget useful? Haha I’m happy if you did, but seriously, most people wouldn’t give 2 shits about it.

Lifted!! The Doppler Effect
.….More or less, that is the Doppler Effect, most famously used to come to the conclusion that the universe is expanding, since no matter which way a radar is pointing, it detects a redshift, the visual manifestation of wavelengths bouncing off a receding source.

The Unbearable Lightness of Being
I’m sure by now, you’ve heard from somewhere or someone, raving reviews of Declaration of Dependence. The new album from the folks who’ve been missing for a little more than 5 years sounds exactly like where they left off a little more than 5 years ago. If you’re a long time fan like me, it’s [...]

Two guys and a Girl = Great Music (Sometimes)
Elizabeth and The Catapult is a band from Brooklyn with a backstory that is nothing much different from the backstories of all other indie bands. Not much to talk about there. But they have a new single out called “Race You”, which sounds like something worth celebrating about.
