New music: The Young Veins "Cape Town"

    

I thought it appropriate to post this track from the The Young Veins as the World Cup is getting underway in South Africa.  The band formed when Ryan Ross and Jon Walker defected from emo-pop band Panic! at the Disco, citing creative differences.  The music is retro garage-pop and the songs tend to be a bit more rough-around-the-edges than their previous band (in a good way).  "Cape Town" sounds to me what like Vampire Weekend might sound like if they listened to more Kinks than Peter Gabriel and Paul Simon.
