I’m not really sure where to start because Metric has left me pretty blown away. They played their last show of their Canadian tour at the exquisite Orpheum theatre in Vancouver last night, to a crowd that was eager to soak up some pretty awesome Canadian talent.
Opening for Metric was [...]
Well…the show started with a bang. Whether the bang was from opener Foxy Shazam’s sudden first song or the doors being blown off the travelling (freak show) circus tent, I’m not sure. What I do know is that you should lock your doors and hide under your bed. Seriously.
It’s not that I didn’t like opening [...]

It’s been four years since we heard a full-length album from Metric, but as you’ll read below, they weren’t exactly just sitting around doing nothing.

Two great songs today. The first is an acoustic version of “Help I’m Alive” by Metric. I was fiening for this to happen ever since checking out that Help I’m Alive Interview with Emily Haines and she’s seen playing the song on piano and singing so beautifully. The next jam features both Electric Youth and [...]
K-OS is cool. For starters, he’s currently on his Karma Tour, where advance tickets aren’t being sold because you’re to simply show up, enjoy the show, and then donate what you think the show was worth on your way out. Talk about taking a huge risk. Secondly, he held and online contest where people could [...]
Here’s the latest…well Metric would like it if you didn’t refer to it as a video, but more of “a short film in an imaginary landscape and the soundtrack is “Help I’m Alive””. The short film piece was created by Deco Dawson, www.decodawson.com. Interesting story with this song. It was originally meant to be released [...]
