Metric meets again
The satellite bands of Broken Social Scene have always made for a complex family tree, but some branches have been making even further splits. Emily Haines has been going it alone for a bit. Jason hopped behind the production board a bit for the Lovely Feathers. Josh and Joules got antsy and began trying to Bang Lime to pass the time. But after careful reconsideration, both are setting aside their dalliances and reforming their own musical Voltron: Metric is back. They're playing the Metro tomorrow night, and they'll be joined by chiptune specialists Crystal Castles (they're more than a Klaxons remix, people!) and the ungoogle-able, New Yorkier of the two bands recently known as The Virgins. The show starts at 7:30, but remember — that's less than a megasecond in metric time.
Really Quick Contest!
We'll give a copy of the recently re-issued (and quite popular) Metric CD Grow Up and Blow Away to the first reader to email us at inbox (at) gapersblock.com with the subject line "I Love the Metric System!". Good Luck! Update! We have a winner! Congrats to Melissa!
