Miike Snow (yes, with two i's) is a Swedish band that formed in 2007. None of the guys are named Mike or even Miike, but the double-i does make it easier to search on the internet.Their self-titled debut has spawned "Animal" as its first single. Despite its appearance on an episode of Gossip Girl, typically something that makes me run screaming away from a tune, "Animal" is as catchy as it is unique. The video for this song is one that I almost feel is classically Swedish. It's very much an art video. There's no message, no plot, just beats, hits, and clashes that a director can fit quick cuts to.
I've described several songs as infinitely singable or danceable. "Animal" is both. I've caught myself singing along dozens of times on the drive home from work and often waking up the next morning with the tune still in my head.
Here's the video for "Animal"
