"Odessa"-Caribou


Oh, Canada. You may have lost your hockey game last night, but you should feel like winners for having Dan Snaith, aka Caribou, as one of your citizens. On 4/20, via Merge, Caribou will be releasing Swim, the follow up to the Polaris Music Prize winning, Andorra. If "Odessa," the first single from Swim, is a preview of what to expect from the forthcoming album, we are in for a real treat. Sounding suspiciously like Erlend Øye, Snaith juxtaposes a love lost/abandoned with one of the most infectious beats that 2010 has seen so far. Be warned, this song will get stuck in your head for days.

To accompany the release of "Odessa," Caribou has just put up a video where we follow a female protagonist through a not so winter wonderland of half dissolves, which for full effect would be best viewed on 4/20, the release date for Swim. Watch below.
