New Vampire Weekend - Unbelievers (Live)

Last on on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, New York's own Vampire Weekend performed a special Halloween edition (hence the makeup) version of their completely brand new track, "Unbelievers." It's the first new material we've heard from the band since their 2010 release Contra, following the band's confirmation of a new album last summer. Check out the performance below and stay tuned for more album details in the near future.

FIDLAR video - Cheap Beer

Ahh, everyone's favorite (or should be) newer band FIDLAR just released another video, this time for their 2012 standout "Cheap Beer." At this point, I've lost track of how many videos the Los Angeles has actually put out, but expect more before the band's full-length debut this January.

New Crystal Castles - Affection


The newest single from Crystal Castles' upcoming III LP, "Affection," starts off fairly similarly to "Baptism," from the band's previous release II. But Alice Glass' lush modified vocals give it a slightly more romantic feel. Judge for yourself below and grab III November 12.

New Das Racist video - Girl

Fans of Das Racist may remember from the group's last album Relax that there were a few more pop-heavy tracks. "Girl," the newest video from that album, throws a few comedic verses near the end, but overall feels a lot more easy going than their other singles. The funny video helps too.
