...there are three good songs on the new Metric album.
You've already heard first single "Help I'm Alive", which is not the best thing they've done, but it's decent enough if not a bit "business as usual" for the band. Then there's "Front Row" and "Sick Muse".
"Front Row" is quite good, but "Sick Muse" is the one that's really knocking the stuffing out of our turkeys right now. We might dare to say that it ranks alongside "Combat Baby", "Wet Blanket" and "Monster Hospital" as one of Metric's top 4 best songs. Like those aforementioned tracks, the verses contain some witty, self-aware lyrics ("you better watch out Cupid, stuck me with a sickness/
Pull your little arrows out and let me live my life") and then when the chorus kicks in the world just gets a little bit better.
The album is called Fantasies and it's out today.
