Modern vampires of the city is vampire weekend s third album and it is a bustling world of voices and visions from the death of henry hudson to the orthodox girl falling in love at an uptown falafel shop from hannah hunt tearing up the new york times on a distant beach to the lethal chandelier of everlasting arms from the ardent yearning of don t lie to the harmonized voice of hope in young lion. Still vampire weekend make a damn good case for wisdom all across modern vampires.
