Emo’s

$25 (currently sold out)

Metric is the prime example of success in the modern day music industry atmosphere. No major record label backing, and still getting radio play, doing film scores, and playing arenas. Metric is a great mix of sound. Vocalist Emily’s voice is the centerpiece, and is framed perfectly, sometimes with sweet, sometimes with edge, by killer synths, and pounding drums. Sometimes, as especially the case with newest release Synthetica earlier this year, it’s hard to know just how to react to Metric’s music. The decision falls somewhere between rocking out, and dancing around until you dislocate a hip. They put on a great show, and seeing them in the setting of Emo’s versus a larger venue is an awesome opportunity. Take it!
