Aunque Emily Haines prometió que Metric volvería al estudio muy pronto , la banda canadiense no tiene un lanzamiento original en puerta. Sin embargo, los remixes de su último disco Fantasies recibirán una edición de lujo. El año pasado, el grupo anunció que le pediría a sus fans de participar en un proyecto de remixes que más tarde serían editados a través de su [...]

Taylor Swift didn't win everything this year, though it sure feels like it. Canadian indie band Metric was honored as MySpace's Triumph of the Year (or is that " Triump "?) for not only making a killer album, Fantasies , but doing it without the help of a major label. "We want to set a precedent for other young indie artists to look to," says frontwoman (and Top 10 indie-rock crush ) Emily Haines. Just this year, Metric self-released their fourth studio album, enjoyed the benefit [...]

Why do I keep listening to the latest Metric album this past week? Noone really knows...but I seem to like it more and more!
The bands that have been orchestrating my Hot Half summer seem to all have a few things in common: They're all making sexy, hip, effortless, catchy and melodic music and both Bad Veins and Metric are no exception. While both have been blogged about before, Bad Veins in depth with a comprehensive review of their forthcoming self titled album and Metric in brief , both have been getting an increasing amount of plays at the Hot Half Headquarters (also known as: My [...]

photos by Bao Nguyen "This is an epic time for Metric ! Fantasies has achieved Gold status in Canada within the first few weeks of its release and it is thanks to the incredible support of our loyal fans. Since the release of Live It Out in 2005 the music industry has been in decline; it seems everyone's sales have suffered a lot since then. To have surpassed our previous album sales so dramatically in such a [...]

The more I listen to Metrics latest album, 'Fantasies' the more certain I am that it will be included it my albums of the year listing in roughly six months time. Here's the video for 'Sick Muse'...enjoy... LINKS Metric's Myspace x
I'm going to start this with a quote from my new room mate: "YOU GUYYYYS WHY ARE METRIC SO GOOD THOUGH?" If you haven't checked out their latest album "Fantasies" yet you're really missing out. They have just morphed into this perfect indie/pop/rock band. Never to be let down by female fronted rock bands (on most occasions they rule) Emily Haines is still one of the most interesting female presences in music; switching from Metric to her solo stuff to Broken Social Scene and back to Metric again. [...]
Friday, June 12, 8pm Cost: $15 (and worth every penny) Emily Haines and band mates are sure to put on an awesome show. Their latest album Fantasies will probably give them the success that Live It Out should have so be sure to catch this one because the next time they're in the area will be at a bigger venue.
Mas será que ninguém trata de trazer os Metric a Portugal? Police and the Private Empty Sick Muse
