Firsties and Faves: Urban Cone

June 3, 2015, 10:47am

You can take the video for “Come Back to Me” one of two ways: It’ll make you burn with jealousy, you hate your life, and wish you too were in Swedish quintet Urban Cone. Or it’ll inspire you to book that vacay to Lesbos you keep talking about. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Go to Greece already! Or anywhere with crystal cerulean waters and ivory sand. The time is now.

However do not let this video encourage you to use a selfie stick. No. Put that down! We spoke to the indie-pop troupe—that’s Emil, Rasmus, Magnus, Tim, and Jacob—about their firsties and faves.
