Only God Was Above Us [Alternate Cover 2LP]

Vampire Weekend - Only God Was Above Us [Alternate Cover 2LP]

Only God Was Above Us was "inspired and haunted by 20th Century New York City" and recorded in such far-flung locales as Tokyo, London, Los Angeles and Manhattan. The album was co-produced by Ezra Koenig and regular collaborator Ariel Rechtshaid, mixed by Dave Fridmann and mastered by Emily Lazar.

The album title comes from the photo on the album cover by Steven Siegel, and other photos from his "Subway Dream" series documenting a Jersey City junkyard in the late '80s.

This independent retail exclusive edition features an alternate cover, a gatefold jacket and a poster. Parental advisory: explicit lyrics.
