Okay this is now my all time favourite Metric song. I've been obsessed since they released it, absolutely BRILLIANT track.

Metric is a hidden gem! I discovered them around 1 month ago and since then can't stop listening their music

And we keep speeding And we keep speeding And we keep crashing And we keep crashing And we keep reaching And we keep reaching And we keep crying 'Til we start laughing Long before my fall from grace For a piece of me, they appeared From the throat, I'm tied to you All of us, we're cracked in two And the ones in the back cry "wait for me" And the ones in the front cry "you're too slow, you're too slow" And the ones who are weak cry "carry me" And the ones who are strong cry "let me go, let me go" We reach for the things we idolize But the rings are just for show Her beauty is a form of charity Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Long before my fall from grace For a piece of me, they appear From the throat, I'm tied to you All of us, we're cracked in two And the ones we ignore cry "come to me" (Come to me) Are the ones we adore cry "give me space, give me space" And the ones who are cruel cry "beg for me" (Beg for me) Are the ones that possess, they love the chase, love the chase We reach for the things we idolize (Idolize) But the rings are just for show Her beauty is a form of charity (Charity) Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow And we keep speeding And we keep speeding (Na na na na na) And we keep crashing And we keep crashing (Na na na na na) And we keep reaching And we keep reaching (Na na na na na) And we keep crying 'Til we start laughing

I discovered this band on Triple J many years ago. Metric are still pumping out sweet tunes.

This is so good, it's like a return to their old sound with heavy New Wave influence and Post-Rock sound. I equally love that their videos for this cycle are all black & white, giving it an extra gothy undertone. This song is like the little sister to "Black Sheep", I can't rave enthusiastically enough for how much I love this. The fade out at the end too; GENIUS!

I CANT BELIEVE I HAVENT HEARD THIS SONG TIL NOW 💜💜💜💜💛

I'll admit that I kinda fell off with Metric for an extended period of time, but this is captivating stuff. Drums, vocals, and guitars are all pretty hypnotizing, right up my alley musically.

Beauty is a form of charity

I feel like this is the real Metric finally unbound, I’m so glad we all got to enjoy this masterpiece

The best part of the new album is that Metric sounds like Metric - and it is awesome.

Amazing song! Metric is one of those bands that are breaking boundaries and moving forward in every album they release without being noticed by te main stream... thank God to that. They came from the indie scene and they should remain there to keep on making the music they want to make :)

Thank God for some genuine appreciation! Yes, Metric have constantly evolved from one album to the next, losing fans and gaining others on the way.

How about welcoming change and evolution?

Loved Pagans. Too Bad so Sad, the Shade, Blind Valentine, Cascades, The Other Side...so many gems. To me everything they touch turns to gold.

1:10 where it drops just rocks my soul out

Just when I thought I couldn't love Metric even more, they come up with this perfection.

growing up I was missing out on this band. The way in which she uses her metaphore. How she/they chose to depict the metaphor they use is everything. Their new song risk is so gooood

I've been a big fan of Metric since seeing them perform their "Live It Out" tour. I have all of their albums and been to many of their concerts. Any fan who hasn't seen a live Metric show is really missing out. Emily Haines is so energetic on stage and always puts on a great performance. Metric rocks!! Love you, Emily 😘❤️

"We reach for the things we idolize, but the rings are just for show..." That line stands out to me. We look at the people in our lives and those around us and want what they have. Some of us look at their social media and see the happy relationships and marriages they're in and we want that so bad. What we don't stop and think about is that if they're truly happy or is it all just for show? We don't see the complete story when we see our family and friend's social media. Which leads to the line "dress to supress all kinds of sorrow". I may be wrong in that take, but what I really love about Metric is that their lyrics aren't too specific to one thing and you can interpret it in many ways. This song has become my life song.

I've been a fan since 2006 and in October I am FINALLY going to get to see Metric live and these new songs are just solidifying my admiration for the band!

So much authenticity in their music. The bass lines, guitar licks and electronic parts convinced me that this might be their best album yet. Can't wait for its realease!

Might be my new favorite METRIC song

Loved Metric since I heard Combat Baby in 03/04. Really excited about this record.

Heard Breathing Underwater for the first time 10 minutes ago, now I love them. The music industry is harsh on great artists like Metric who dont quite make it into the global mainstream.

This song might be my favorite Metric song to date, I cannot to stop listening.

Holy fuck this song is freaking gold

This is probably gonna just get buried but I just got back from a concert where Leah Fay of July Talk ran out into the audience and started dancing her heart out with anyone she could grab, to this song, and I got to dance with one of my favorite artists while 30 feet away from one of my other favorite artists, playing one of my favorite songs, and I feel so lucky right now, they're both amazing

My favorite from the new album ❤️

This is an outstanding track on the new album,an absolute masterpiece

Awesome track!! I'm playing it over and over..,

dude songs like this make you want to live forever 0:45-1:10 fucking angelic tones.... i just want to shout love is the only answer and do everything i set my mind to. It makes me believe were all coming back for infinity 8

I've been metric since '03... Never stop!!!

I discovered this band a few days ago ... now I'm obsessed.

I'm late getting this album... I can't get enough of this song!!! Love it!

Favourite track on the album. Appeals to the rocker in me. I love when that opening guitar riff tears a hole in the sky!

This one took me back. I missed this.

What a song! It must be about the relationship between the band and the audience.. Metric has primed in this album and undoubtedly their best material so far..

One of my favourites now

I didn't know anything about this amazing band until I worked security at one of their concerts recently. Now they and Of Monsters and Men which I recently discovered are my two favorite bands. Also, I was backstage and Emily Haines seemed to be a very nice person.

LOVE the scream of the guitar at the intro !! and her voice has an urgency to it that is stellar compliment to that "wail' of the guitar Love these guys! much love all-me

What I love most about Metric is how amazing they sound live! The energy Emily brings to the stage is captivating and the range she can belt out isn't even comparable. I actually saw them again last night and heard this song for the first time, and like so many of their songs, it starts off with you wondering how its gonna play out and by the end you're rocking right along.

I love Metric so fucking much. They are the best ever band to represent Canada. Its a crime ive only seen them 2 times. I will never miss one ever again i tell u that. This band has been together for 20 years making fresh cutting edge music. It is the highest calibre of pop music, from anywhere, maybe ever. Emily is my hero. For real I wish I could write half as good as she does. Every song is perfect. Her vocal range and style are a perfect pairing with some of the freshest grooves and driving basslines that will move you and not just on the dancefloor. I find the content of her work is so beautiful and relevant, to me at least, that it makes me smile through the tears. I breaks me down and builds me back up. Thank you so fucking much for this song.

"We reach for the things we idolize But the rings are just for show Her beauty is a form of charity Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow" Is this song about how some people mask their sadness through material things? Definitely loving how this song is not easily decipherable. Plus, it gives me similar vibes as "Live It Out" (my #1 favourite album by them) and "Synthetica". 😊

So good. Emily haines sings beautifully. Amazing guitars synths. I have been waiting so long for this album. Thanks metric
