title: Illegal class file: Class module-info is missing a super type. Class file version 53
body: <p>When I add firebase perf dependency into my project i am getting this error <code>Illegal class file: Class module-info is missing a super type. Class file version 53.</code>
  My Gradle and google services project-level dependencies are </p>
  
  <pre><code>    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.1'
      classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:4.3.2'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I followed the exact steps mentioned in their docs <a href="https://firebase.google.com/docs/perf-mon/get-started-android" rel="noreferrer">https://firebase.google.com/docs/perf-mon/get-started-android</a>.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried clean and rebuild and clearing the Android Studio cache.</p>
  
  <p>And also tried similarly issue resolution from StackOverflow </p>
