‘Harmony Hall’ and ‘2021’ are the band's first singles since 2013.
After six long years of silence, Vampire Weekend have returned with new music. Following the announcement that their highly anticipated follow-up to 2013's Modern Vampires of the City will be released this year, the American indie-rock band have shared two new singles, 'Harmony Hall' and '2021.'
On Tuesday, the band took to Twitter, for the first time since 2014, to announce the imminent arrival of the new singles. They shared the news with a link to '120 Minutes of Harmony Hall Guitars', which is exactly what it sounds like - a two-hour-long video of a guitar riff from 'Harmony Hall', on loop.

Vampire Weekend also plan to release several more songs before the release of upcoming double album, Father Of The Bride. The band launched a competition on their Instagram account yesterday, offering "something very small" to anyone who could "correctly guess the title" of the album, which had, until today, been referred to only as FOTB.
