"Their fans will stand by them ‘till the death, but this album missed the bull’s eye by a small margin..." Metric | Synthetica To put it bluntly, Metric’s fifth album, Synthetica , sounds like the type of album that is produced mainly for one sole purpose: commercialisation. Their music has always been consistently solid  ̶  the songs from their second album, Live It Out , do well to support the idea that Metric has the potential to make very good music with interesting lyrics  ̶  and Emily Haines, the lead singer, is [...]

Metric went big last time around. Fantasies , the band’s fourth album, was “all about pushing [ Metric ] out into the world”, in the words of lead singer Emily Haines , and boy did it succeed in that respect: the glossy, unashamedly poppy album garnered commercial success that matched its critical acclaim, despite not being released on a label, and the band even picked up a couple of Juno awards and some spots on a few movie soundtracks off the back of it. Metric show no [...]

Os canadenses do Metric acabaram de divulgar o primeiro videoclipe  de seu mais novo álbum, Synthetica :  Youth Without Youth . Coincidindo com o lançamento oficial do quinto disco do grupo, o clipe conjuga os conceitos de ‘antigo’ e ‘novo’ por meio de imagens de temas presentes em Synthetica e ao mesmo tempo faz referência a momentos da carreira do Metric. Dirigido por Justin Broadbent , o registro lembra muito a estética dos videoclipes do anos 90, época áurea da MTV no segmento, e coloca a vocalista Emily Haines [...]

Metric's new video for the gleaming, stomping glam-pop single " Youth Without Youth " is the most '90s-MTV thing I've seen in a while. We get a whole lot of shots of the band looking glamorous on a soundstage somewhere, as well as assorted non-sequiturs: football players, a little kid stacking up cakes, an old lady with a shotgun. Justin Broadbent directs. Watch it below. Read More...

Today, June 12th, marks the U.S. release of Synthetica (MMI/MOM+POP), Metric's fifth full-length studio album. Guitarist and album producer, Jimmy Shaw, describes Synthetica's enthralling balance of futuristic and organic sound on the new record as "[...] the culmination of everything we've done. We've always had a sound in our heads that we hoped to realize. We finally heard it coming back out of the speakers this time." Metric's Emily Haines first envisioned the word "Synthetica" as the name for a ...

Metric is an odd case. A holdover from the halcyon days of early-2000s post-punk revival bands, these Canadians never quite fit that label, despite scooping up some of the same fans and touring with bands like Bloc Party. Metric was always strictly a synth-infused indie-pop band — with the emphasis squarely on "pop" — and while their initial release, 20032s Old World Underground, Where Are You Now , went gold in their homeland and garnered them some critical praise over here, they never really broke any boundaries or made much of an impact. On [...]

Metric have released the 2nd single, “Speed the Collapse”, from their upcoming album, Synthetica . This is 100x better than 1st single, “Youth Without Youth”, and actually makes me somewhat excited for the record. Synthetica will be out June 12th.

Listen to "Speed The Collapse" , the second single off Metric 's "Synthetica" which is out June 12 via their own Metric Music International .

The second single is "Speed The Collapse" , which is gloomier in its [...]

Since Metric announced the details to Synthetica, we've consumed anthemic first single "Youth Without Youth." Now, they've dropped the second single from the June release, a pummeling, uptempo song swimming in a Radiohead-esque texture. Stream it below. Synthetica is out 6/12 Metric Music International/Mom + Pop. We recently spoke to Metric's Emily Haines for Progress [...]

Emily Haines , ao anunciar o novo álbum do Metric , deixou os fãs agitados e ansiosos com suas descrições filosóficas do conteúdo e do processo de composição desse tal Synthetica . Mas de nada adianta um álbum com um release tão brilhante se seu conteúdo musical falha na missão de impressionar. Isso não parece ser o caso do novo disco do Metric , que se depender de seu primeiro single, Youth without youth , promete igualar os grandes feitos do bem sucedido Fantasies. Emily Haines e o guitarrista James [...]

Hace 15 días la banda canadiense lanzó el primer sencillo de su nuevo disco, Synthetica, programado para el 12 de junio de este año. "Youth Without Youth", según Emily Haines y James Shaw, habla sobre la transición de ser un inocente niño jugando con carritos hasta la cruda adolescencia, donde es arrestado por romper ventanas con [...]
