Did anybody get a numbered vinyl?
I bought within the first hour and didn’t get a numbered one. Anybody get one yet? Just curious how things ended up hashing out. I’m a huge fan so I’m kinda bummed. I still appreciate what I got though.
Edit: ahhh! This is so embarrassing! After reading some of the lyrics on the back I saw the number in the bottom left hand corner! I was expecting it to be big an bold in the front. I laughed out loud and said “Oh my God!” When I saw the number 427/500. Super happy yet embarrassed I looked over it 😅

Did Black Sheep ever come out on vinyl?
I recently got Greatest Hits Vol 2 and the very last track was Black Sheep (funhouse acoustic). I was very excited to see Black Sheep on vinyl but when the song played I was kinda disappointed because I don’t think the acoustic guitar does the song justice. I really want the original Black Sheep on vinyl but since it was a single I don’t know if it did come out on vinyl. If anyone knows if it did where can I find it?

I could totally see this as a Metric song, especially if it had a little more guitar and the song was a little longer.

P.S.: I don’t usually listen to modern pop music, but this is one of my guilty pleasures!

Psyched for the greatest hits tomorrow. I haven’t looked tos eve what songs are on there so it’s a suprise. I haven’t listened to Metric since I saw them live in June and am gonna get back into them until something else I like comes out. 🫶🏻

Each song is a special journey to endless emotions and nostalgia for places and people we have not seen.
The only Bad part of Metric's songs is when they end

Insta live
Did anybody happen to record the Instagram live the band did today? It seemed like it was pretty short but I think I missed the beginning and it doesn't look like it's available on their profile.

Metric - Fantasies (Full Album Unmixed Multitracks, WAV)
These come from a remix contest held in partnership with Indaba Music all the way back in 2010, which had two sets of stems for download:
-Mixed stems, free of charge (ironically, I still haven't found these)
-More in-depth, full studio multitracks, $2 each
The latter is what I've managed to download from songstems.net, on bippupload at a grueling 50kb/s. To save you the trouble, I've reuploaded all of them as individual .zip files on Google Drive. Enjoy!

Metric played in House Md!
It’s so cool hearing my favorite band in my favorite show. In House S6 E7 “Known Unknowns” in the opening scene you can very clearly hear Stadium Love playing in the background!

Mash up
So I’ll probably get cursed out for this lol but a little while ago someone asked what Charlie xcx song from Brat would you want to hear Emily on. @nemie22 had the great idea of Sympathy is a knife and Gimme Sympathy. Here’s my crack at it. Beat switches in the middle.

I never meet anyone who loves this band or has even heard of this band. what is everyone's demographic?
I'm 32f and from the us. Formentera and Fantasies saved my life. are they more popular in Canada maybe? I also used to like dragonette which no one in the us had heard of beyond the one Hello song
