...Contra,” which recently topped the Billboard charts, is exactly what one could expect from Vampire Weekend—solid, enjoyable music, gently pushing at its own boundaries, yet just a little unremarkable. It’s hard to imagine how anyone could reasonably love or hate it: it’s good, and that’s about...
...Giving Up The Gun” is the biggest step forward for the band’s songwriting skills and possibly the best song on the LP. It is also one of the darkest and most direct songs the group has yet penned.

Still, that's a 7-point gain over her numbers from last August, which suggests she is on the right track. Still, she clearly has her work cut out to make herself known to voters, especially in poorer and more remote parts of the country. "She doesn't do well at rallies," Castro Neves said. "She is trying to change that, but with Lula alongside...
