JEUX SANS FRONTIERES

These Vampire Weekend boys seem well aware of the Peter Gabriel dialectic (“This feels so unnatural/Peter Gabriel too”), which is essentially this: Peter Gabriel is great/Peter Gabriel sucks.

The fulcrum for this particular philosophical constant occurs somewhere around the time when he stopped naming all of his albums “Peter Gabriel.”

“So” then, is fully realized sucking. A grand achievement in sucking. It sucks like a vampire 40 days dry.

Thank you for choosing the great Peter Gabriel, boys...
