Metric, having already won us over with this year’s Fantasies release, continues to woo with a new acoustic EP. We’ve embedded a player below so you can check it out, and we hope you enjoy the slightly more laid-back grooves. Make sure you check out their tour dates as well; I, for one, am looking forward to the Boston date in late November. When will they be through your little hamlet?

Ugh. Paste’s profile of Free Energy made me kind of hate them. So does your review. It’s this unctuous defense of good-time rock-and-roll ("we’re just here to party, and we’re awesome!") that seems more self-serving than fun-loving.

that inescapable feeling you are referring to, is that like when you hear something and you could have sworn you heard it before because of the nostalgic catchy quality? or is is like when you’ve heard a band exactly like said band?
great post by the way!

This comment stream is so meta. Great review Kelly.

no prob. The whole album is excellent, combining some of the harder sonics of Los Angeles with the meat of his debut and obviously difficult to summarize in only 50 words…
I’d say it’s on par with the debut, but better than Los Angeles.
