Metric

From: Toronto, Canada

Active: 1998-present

I first heard them: on Pandora, which kept coming up with "Combat Baby"

Sound: indie rock with some gorgeous musical ideas but a tendency toward shapelessness

Further listening: Here's a song from Fantasies and one from Synthetica. (Their most recent album, from 2015, doesn't really do anything for me.)

"Sick Muse" (2009)
"Youth Without Youth" (2012)
