Question: What do you get when you mix high school ska/alternative with refined indie?
Answer: Architecture in Helsinki
I have been a fan of this oddly-named band for a few years now, and have only heard them outside of my own music collection once, on a local college station. But they’ve got some dark-horse indie classics, even if they are relatively under-known.
The only thing I have against AIH is that they’re the kind of band that can be REALLY good when they’re good, but REALLY strange when they’re strange (and when I mean strange, I mean barely listenable). But they’re worth a listen.
