Metric slakes our thirst for more

text: Ari Sommer / photos: Justin Broadbent

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?

There was definitely a guy surfing in a wheelchair. I tried to capture it with my camera, but it was a total blur. He came over the barricade 3 times. The first time, he came over AFTER his wheelchair.
