When it comes to GQ coverage, they most certainly are.
This is'nt a music blog. It's a fashion blog. So, when we claim that Vampire Weekend is the new Strokes, we don't mean their music style. We mean their clothes. And their impact on fashion.
It's hard to disagree with people saying that The Strokes had a certain impact on the fashion scene. Wih their long hair, vintage clothes and super skinny jeans, those guys was the definition of cool in the start of this decade. Now, the torch has been passed on to he preppy guys in Vampire Weekend. GQ, Teen Vogue and several other fashion magazines have already embraced them. Now it's time for you to do the same. Check out their Myspace-site.
