SORRY! SORRY! I haven’t posted in sooo long, I know, but this will make up for it. This is Rubik, a Finnish band that I have been drooling over for about a month. Comparisons to Animal Collective, Arcade Fire and the less popular but still amazing Mice Parade can be made, but I think this song Fire Age stands on it’s own as one of the most elated, uplifting, and Scandanavian songs I have heard this summer. I love how it sort of teases you at first, adding and taking away layers, and then it just lets you have it all at once. THE CHORUS! THE MELODY! THE XYLOPHONE! Listen to it on the first day of school for me- no more of those for this old lady.

WAIT SORRY Fire Age was too big to post, so heres No Escape instead. But go to here for Fire Age: http://hypem.com/#/track/797720/Rubik-Fire+Age
