Most anticipated albums 2013: Which albums are you guys most excited about?

The excitement is very high already for this year in the music industry and there are a lot of most anticipated albums 2013 has in store for us!

The album releases for 2012 were a good combination, however today I would like to mention some albums that I think a lot of people who are in love with the indie genre just like I am, would like to hear and express their thoughts about. One of the albums I reviewed earlier was the Vampire Weekend album Modern Vampires of the City, and I think this is one of the most anticipated albums 2013 has to offer.

I think some other most awaited albums of 2013 include Toro Y Moi’s Anything in Return, Phoenix’s Bankrupt!, Arcade Fire’s new untitled album, Deerhunter’s Monomania, The Black Keys with their untitled album, the Flaming Lips’ The Terror, as well as MGMT’s untitled album later this year. While this is all exciting news and all, I would love to hear what you are anxious for. Please feel free to share your opinion with the community about any albums you are excited about this year!

Most awaited albums of 2013: Vampire Weekend’s Modern Vampires of the City

Vampire Weekend is a band us Indie music lovers have listened to ever since Indie became a word, and this band continues to amaze audiences worldwide with one of the most awaited albums of 2013.

Vampire Weekend has a very distinct sound and instrumentals that are almost instantly recognized which some people like to call African-tinged pop music. Not having any album releases for 2012, they made their fans wait for their next album which came just in time for the summer of 2013. Having the sound that they do, I think Modern Vampires of the City is pretty much the perfect album for the start of summer; it really makes you feel as if you were a kid listening to a childhood favourite of yours whilst having the adult responsibilities that we all have.

This album was very well done and feels like a rare thought-through in today’s indie music genre. The best songs of this album were the slow and relaxed jams such as ‘step’ that is rather different than anything we've heard before, however still has that eloquent voice of Ezra Koenig. These songs are a huge step forward for Vampire Weekend and Indie music as a whole and we’re all going to be hearing a lot more in the time coming about Modern Vampires of the City because it’s a pretty much perfect album for the perfect time.
