This band is definitely not new to the scene, but they are new to my scene! So I figured I would share the wealth!

My good friend, Roxy, introduced me to Metric last week and I haven’t been able to pry myself away from their albums since. They have this infectious indie-pop sound that keeps their songs on repeat for days on end.

Their new album, Fantasies, took quite a while to come out but the time spent is definitely appreciated when listening through some of the tracks such as Help I’m Alive, Stadium Love and Sick Muse. Frontwoman, Emily Haines, states that the title of the album is meant to represent those of the unattainable variety as well as evoke a “dream-like quality,” which is definitely evident.

Metric has the ability to both put you at peace and make you want to rock out. Could you want anything better?
Check out their new video for Gimme Sympathy, which was all shot in one take!
