METRIC - LIVE! IN SINGAPORE
THE LONG WAIT IS OVER! Canadian indie rockers, METRIC, will FINALLY be heading down to our little humid island on July 31st at the Esplanade Concert Hall. Kudos to Greenhorn Productions for bringing them in!
Immediately after their release of their first full-length album, “Old World Underground, Where are You Now?”, the quartet was already nominated for a Juno Award under the Best Alternative Album category. Consecutively, Metric got nominated for the 2006 & 2009 Polaris Music Prize and 2010 Juno Awards for their following albums “Live It Out” & “Fantasies”. It is no shocker to how their songs ended up on major movie/television soundtracks like The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Zombieland, The Vampire Diaries, Grey’s Anatomy and the list goes on.
2012 seems like a good year for Metric. The band is set to release their 5th studio album titled “Synthetica” on the 12th of June 2012. As quoted by Emily Haines, “Synthetica is about staying home and wanting to crawl out of your skin from the lack of external stimulation…about forcing yourself to confront what you see in the mirror when you finally stand still long enough to catch a reflection…about being able to identify the original in a long line of reproductions. It’s about what is real vs what is artificial.” The album’s first single “Youth Without Youth” was recently released followed by “Speed The Collapse”, bringing listeners back to the bands’ synth-pop days. Ace! Give them a listen :)
Metric is known for their effervescent stage performance. Every one who has seen them live only has positive reviews, each saying that Metric’s recorded music is nothing compared to watching them live, especially since Emily Haines is so full of energy. So… If you’re on the fence, buy a ticket. ‘Nuff said.
Tickets are selling at $68, $88, $108, $128 and $148 (excluding Sistic fees). Online sales started on 1st of June through SISTIC!
So grab those tickets and get the best seats. Good luck, it’s gonna be dead fun!
In case you guys haven’t heard yet, A SKYLIT DRIVE WILL BE IN SINGAPORE NEXT YEAR! 24th February to be exact! Thanks to the girls from Upsurge Productions for this one of course!
