Vampire Weekend

Vampire weekend is an American indie rock band from New York City, they are very similar to ‘OkGo’ and ‘Pulp’ as they are very unique and individual, they like to be different and stand out from the crowd. Contra was their second album and was released in January 2010. Compared to the other two bands Vampire weekend are a very recent group, which formed in 2006.

The album cover is similar in ways to ‘pulp’ as they have both used a female as the central main focus. The secondary colours shown are very girly but have elements of a darker side because the use shadows. Candy floss coloured Pink is a softer, less violent red. Whereas purple is elegant. The girl’s facial expression is serious, as she is looking directly at you. Which is allowing you to make eye contact with her and also drawing you in. The CD cover is very funky, the layout looks like their music is coming alive. The genre of this band is indie rock. The audience that would best be fit this band would be 15-50 year old's.
