    Tots diggin’ the EP, but my favorite track right now is the Architecture In Helsinki remix of WHoA. Would love the physical copy of this, as the artwork is sickkkkk.

    Cheers!

    P.S. I saw this on PMAs twitter and I would love a copy of the single. I enjoyed the mixtape greatly and I can’t wait for the album to drop (though some say it’s already hit the internet).

    OMG MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

    I’m so glad you brought this song to my attention. It’s been a wet winter here in New Zealand, but I’ve already started my ‘Summer’ playlist and this is on it.

    [P.S. I can provide a US address if need be... :-) ]

    These guys rock, saw them at Pitchfork and then saw VW at Lolla. Huge fan of both, but more importantly of PMA, and I believe that I’m awesome enough to fully appreciate the awesomeness of this single.

    I want it, I live in the US, and I happen to be totally awesome. I think I was clearly destined to win a copy of this amazing 7″. I may be a dinosaur (and a penguin), but I can assure you i would appreciate this just as much as a human would.

    Ezra Koenig is the man! I absolutely love Vampire Weekend! I’m really excited about all the music coming out of Africa right now, or even have some sort of traditional African influence. I saw BLK JKS live at SXSW and they were amazing. Warm Heart of Africa is such a fun song to listen to. I like that The Very Best has there own unique style, different from BLK JKS. I love the BLK JKS art rock style, but it’s nice to listen to something a little more chill with a brighter sound.

    I am awesome!

    The Very Best has made long days stuck reading law books just a bit brighter.

    I would say yes to a copy of this 7″.
    I would say I am awesome because my mom told me so. Well, I don’t think she used the word ‘awesome,’ but I’m sure that’s what she meant.

    Did anyone else think the dancer on crutches at Pitchforkfest was hilarious? Still dancing (and entertaining) from her seat, she almost made me forgive the idiots in front of me trying to pogo all over my feet.

    as Ja Rule would say: “It’s MURDAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”

    I need this single, it would be an amazing birthday present from PMA to me :-)

    I’m also awesome, I like to read this site and they post some of the best music out there

    This would be great to have this 7″ because I would totally have it as an essential piece for my dorm room, because I’m living on my own now and this independence is amazing. I want my room to be me and having a 7″ of Warm Heart of Africa, one of my favorite summer tracks would be amazing. It would give just the right extra touch to my own life now.

    The show at Le Poisson Rouge was one of the best shows I’ve ever been to. This band can really put on a show. I can’t get enough of this band!
