Discovery was formed from Rostam Batmanglij of Vampire Weekend [keyboard/production] and Ra Ra Riot’s Wes Miles [vocals]. The combination makes for excellent pop, which expanded until flying away, in my town this past summer. The acceptability of the music mixed with its functional erraticism causes surprise on first listen and ear-warmth thereafter, as the ear wormeth. Here is a revue of Vampire Weekend; Ra Ra Riot; and lastly, Discovery.
