Vampire Weekend

They may not be my favourite band (they are up there though), but they sure are my favourite style wise. Even their music seems to have a preppy feel to it and it comes through loud and clear in their music videos, filmed on sailboats and cottages.


Aside from Vampire Weekend and the parody Tea Partay commercial from Smirnoff which I posted earlier another great music video discovery, I made was by Dynamite Hack for their acoustic rendition of Boyz in the Hood. Cricket sweaters, sweaters over the shoulders, GTH chinos in yellow and pink with golf course action, what's not to like?
Funny moments including the Rolls Royce on blocks at the start of the video and the friendly wave from the cop add to the hilarity of the entire video and the context from which the song originated from.
