Indie rock sensation Vampire Weekend breaks their silence with a new single, ‘Classical’. This melody heralds their upcoming album ‘Only God Was Above Us’, a much-anticipated return after five years.

Anticipation is running high as Vampire Weekend releases a fresh and evocative single titled ‘Classical’. This artfully crafted piece is more than just a song; it’s a prelude to the band’s return to the music scene with their newest album ‘Only God Was Above Us’, slated to drop on the 5th of April. Infused with the ethereal and complex spirit of 20th Century New York City, the album promises to be a mosaic of sounds, embracing the band’s charismatic approach to indie rock.

Global influences meet hallmark vibrancy as the album materializes from recording sessions in diverse locations such as Manhattan, Los Angeles, London, and Tokyo. The eclectic mix of cities is not by chance; it frames the variegated sonic landscape that the band is known for. At the production helm were Ezra Koenig and Ariel Rechtshaid, whose collaborative synergy has breathed life into the project, with Dave Fridmann’s mixing mastery and Emily Lazar’s mastering finesse proving to be the cherry on top.

The mystical and slightly eerie album title comes from an intriguing source—the album’s artwork, which features photos taken by Steven Siegel in 1988 at a subway graveyard in New Jersey. It’s storytelling through visuals and music, creating an ambience that is both otherworldly and grounded in urban mythos.

As fans and music connoisseurs alike gear up to dive into Vampire Weekend’s latest opus, one thing is for certain: ‘Classical’ is but a glimpse into a world meticulously woven by lyricism and melody, destined to resonate with many. Check out the single below and mark your calendars for an album that is bound to redefine indie rock as we know it.
