I don't get it?

This is a cover of a song written and performed (much better) buy Russian singer Zemfira. Buy hers.

Iskala

"Iskala" by Universal You is a moody alt-rock track that entrances the mind and echoes through the soul. It's the type of track that college radio craves and the mainstream needs - the type of song that matters.

"Iskala" is a unique cover of a song made popular by Russian artist Zemfira. Universal You began playing their interpretation of the song during their live shows and it immediately became a hit with their fans. It's no wonder why.

Lead singer Gulzhan's soulful voice immediately draws you in and her ease of switching between English and Russian lyrics keeps you captivated. Vocally, Gulzhan is in he same league as Madona, Natalie Merchant and The Cranberries' Dolores O'Riordan, but with a bit more of a sultry vibe. She has the kind of voice that you could listen to all day. It's classy yet seductive, champagne for the ears.

Guitarists Mark and Paul create a unique melody that blends together pop/rock with hints of a folk and metal influence. Some guitar riffs are strikingly similar to those of Love Spit Love's version of "How Soon Is Now?" the theme to the WB series "Charmed". It verges on psychedelic while staying grounded in the alt-rock genre. Whether it's intentionally left over from the original or their own doing, Paul and Mark do an astonishing job of establishing a deeply rooted Russian rock sound throughout the song.

Universal You's cover of "Iskala" is the perfect inroduction to the band. With gripping vocals and guitar driven hooks this band has the makings of greatness. Though "Iskala" may not fit the current mainstream radio mould its the type of track that will continually recruit legions of loyal fans.
