Romanticize the Dive

Metric's relentless pursuit of timeless songwriting and fiercely independent ethos have cemented their place as one of the most essential and ahead-of-the-curve bands of the last two decades. The trailblazing Toronto outfit was founded by songwriting and production partners Emily Haines and Jimmy Shaw, along with bandmates Joshua Winstead and Joules Scott Key. Their 10th studio album harkens back to the free spirit of that era, kicking off with Haines nostalgically imploring the listener to 'let me take you back, it was the start of something.' before pulling back the curtain on a band that has consistently stayed true to each other and their ethics for decades.
