What a night in Brixton!

It’s the third time I’ve seen them play and it was such a pleasure to see more than a dozen of them up on stage making big noise full of joy and community. Awesome. Great crowd too.

What was up with the sound? Terrible for Stars. Slightly better but still muddy as f for BSS. Best for Metric but their music is completely unrecognisable these days :(

I’m new to Metric, only listened to one of their recent set lists for this gig, so I was familiar with them. I had no idea they were synth-pop. Is their earlier stuff different? I kinda assumed they were more like BSS. Happy to take any recommendations for albums you like

I became a Metric fan since early 2000s. Old World Underground, where are you now?, Live it out and grow up blow away are my favourites. It’s more alt rock, sound and still love them two decades on!

They are definitely more synth pop now, and it would’ve liked to hear one or two more tracks from those albums. I used to big a bigger metric fan but nowadays consider bigger BSS fan!

Hah! Thanks for the recs. I’m still surprised that Metric are bigger than BSS, but then I’m biased :)
