By Gabriel Jones Rock music more or less comes down to two questions: What’s next? And/or, what decade do we resurrect? Metric has spent the better part of a decade bringing back the ’80s, an ebullient new-wave post- (if diluted) riot grrrl act that falls somewhere between Kim Wilde and Blondie.

The Scallywags pirated, pilfered and plundered the booty while watching Metric. The Ogden ebbed and flowed with melodies from afar. It's been nearly 5 years since Metric was last in Denver, and they were sure not to disappoint. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =AJ5SsRa14-U Did you know lead singer Emily Haines was born in 1974?! You're killing it gerl! Emily Haines - Metric
Supporting the release of their new album Synthetica , Metric (@metric) played Radio City Music Hall last Sunday. Though the beginning of the set focused mostly on the band's newer material (in fact, the first three songs from the new album were played in order), they threw in several old favorites as well. Most surprisingly, though, Lou Reed , who performed on "The Wanderlust", actually came out during the encore to join the band.
The mad geniuses behind the kids' show Yo Gabba Gabba! have managed to wrangle more world class talent to perform ridiculous-yet-awesome songs for their latest compilation , due October 9th.

Four features original works from The Roots, Metric, Cut Copy, Belle & Sebastian, Biz Markie, Mariachi El Bronx, and loads of others.

Those in attendance at last night's Metric show at Radio City Music Hall got a special treat: The band did a couple songs with local musician Lou Reed.

We've got fan-filmed footage of both songs. Check em out. Read More...

By Michel Dussack Rock bands don’t play Radio City Music Hall very often, but when they do, it’s almost always a show that’s memorable forever. Canadian indie rockers Metric’s show at the historic New York venue on September 23rd was no exception, and while being confined to an area in front of a seat may have stifled the crowd a little, the band was firing on all cylinders. The band’s 18 song set was based heavily upon their 2012 release ...

It covers his current relationship with alcohol and drugs - there is none - as [...]
