I love their dedication, you'd think that after releasing 8 albums they would eventually fall into mediocrity and drop in quality like it tends to happen with most artists and bands, but no, Metric keeps raising the bar with every album. Wish more people knew how amazing they are.

Many bands only have one record in them, and then they disagree on the direction and jump all over the place, destroying the process to the next great album.

Help I'm Alive was transcendental when I first heard it. Everything else was too and has been ever since 🤣 I don't understand

Dark Saturday 0:29 All Comes Crashing 5:05 Synthetica 9:35 Gimme Sympathy 13:02 Interview 16:44

Caught them on this last tour and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen.

I always wanted to catch them live.

The woman has pipes. Period. And what a songwriter.

I really love them when the band is paired down like this.

Emily and Jimmy never disappoint. They always come through on KEXP with something solid.✨️💯

Love Emily’s presence & music & their work is likely the largest contributor to my Spotify playlists!! Brilliant!! ❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦☀️😎

Yea! Metric thank you for sprinkling some magic on us all in the Pacific North West.

Loved this session and interview. This version of Gimme Something just about brought me to tears.

i always love when artists change things up with their music.

Saw them live this past september and holy fuck they know how to put on a show. Amazing vocals, mesmerizing bass, killer drums, and astronomic guitar. PSA to people seeing them live: Get tipsy to have the time of your life lol

Yeah, Alvvays, another great canadian band.

Just saw them in Atlanta! She’s still got it.

Really loved the versions, now it's time to try the studio versions :D made my day as a first time Metric listener! Much love to the KEXP

dam that rendition of All Comes Down was amazing

How did I miss this?? Can't wait to listen.

Metric is such a beautiful dream. 🖤

Braaaaaaazil, Braaaaziiil, Braaaaaziiiiiiiil

I dream of an acoustic tour in tiny concert hall ... but I have my ticket for the electric tour in progress (in France in February 2023)

I think I've seen Metric at least like 20 times a few times on purpose and also because they play like every festival in Canada. They always put on an amazing show, in fact I saw them with Deathcab for Cutie back in I think like 2015 general admission at the ACC. It was an amazing show I'll never forget that night.

How can she still just open her mouth and sing like that? Damn. And the lyrics are still so good!

Metric is always so great

I'd say Metric could sweep the 2023 Americana Awards with this, but they're Canadian.

La belle Emilie ... quelle voix ... extra

Loving this Dirt version, much love from Texas !

been listening to them since parkdale, they became part of my childhood

More Canadian legends. LETS GO BABY!!

The singer gets most of the attention, but the Music man is a big part of what makes Metric work.

Whoauuu je n’arrete pas de les écouter depuis le live à The Current 😮 et la ils sont dans ma KEXP BEST RADIO (avec radio Cidade Brésil) C’est trop cool tankx kexp ♥️🫶

metric played the dirt road renditions at the 2022 andy kim christmas last month! it sounded great emily and jimmy are so talented with just the guitar and mic live. kind of a shame they didn't get to join bss who was also there but bss played with shaye which was so rare and cool

Damn Emily’s voice is likely whiskey and honey sharp, sweet, and makes you warm inside

I keep waiting to be disappointed....never happens.
