Apparently good things continue to come in pairs, because Vampire Weekend has dropped another two new songs, "Sunflower" and "Big Blue."

Both tracks arrived Wednesday, serving as previews of the band's upcoming fourth album Father of the Bride, which they confirmed today will be out on May 3 via Columbia Records. The record is available for pre-order now.

The brisk "Big Blue" was produced by Ariel Rechtshaid, Vampire Weekend frontman Ezra Koenig and DJ Dahi," while Rechtshaid and Koenig produced "Sunflower," which also features The Internet's Steve Lacy.

As we previously mentioned, Vampire Weekend has also announced plans for a tour in support of the album. Tickets are on sale now.
