I'm not exactly sure why, but these guys anger up my blood.

moistphily (June 2, 2010)

it's because they think dressing like that is funny. and they're intensely annoying

bassxface (June 2, 2010)

I'm with you. Also, they can't write a tune.

jawbreakersuckssucks (June 2, 2010)

...that Paul Simon didn't already write 35 years ago.

It's funny 'cause it's true.

I'd say their fans more than the band itself. Though I really can't get into their music at all

TrueBeliever (June 2, 2010)

It's because you're jealous they ate In-N-Out in the video. Now I think I'll get just that for lunch today, sucks to be you.

I think this band is a bunch of fun! And they're fans don't seem to be any sort of annoying niche group because I think most everyone enjoys them.

Also, dressing like that and shooting that goofy video would be a ton of fun.

Child-molesting Weekend more like

Firey plane crash into the rockies...this band or Aerosmith?

bassxface (June 2, 2010)

This fucking band, I have yet to see "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" live.

moistphily (June 2, 2010)

Yep gotta go with this band at least aerosmith got a bit of energy about them

ExtraCheesePizza (June 2, 2010)

This band. Aerosmith would be on the radio more often than Michael Jackson after he died. This band doesn't have the amount of material or as big of a fanbase for it to be too annoying post-crash.

Dante3000 (rich) (June 2, 2010)

So, if it's a Vampire Weekend and a holiday, is that like a three day weekend?

bassxface (June 2, 2010)

Something about Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter.

ZachLeg (June 2, 2010)

i was hoping for a green day cover in vain of the rancid cover they did

Stacular (June 2, 2010)

My opinion says these guys are a solid, campy, self-aware band that write catchy tunes. Many of you seem to miss the point where they don't take themselves seriously.

usversusthem (June 2, 2010)

This. Although in their defence, they're too busy upping the punx to notice nuances like that, I think.

IamtheAvatar (June 2, 2010)

Last record was pretty good. This one's ok.

mill83 (June 3, 2010)

I didn't miss the point. I just think they're doucebags. You can be a self-aware douchebag... but you're still a douchebag.

i-type-poorly (June 2, 2010)

Worst song on the album. What a stupid choice. Shit sounds like something that would be in a Carnival Cruise ad.

Sickboi (chris) (June 2, 2010)

I'm disappointed that Aubin didn't use a picture of a sausage for the story image. Then again, he lives in Canada so he may not have seen the Johnsonville commercial.
