在SLSK里意外发现的真实存在的那支地下乐队Metric2005最新的专辑《Live it out》。据说乐队是由多伦多艺术大学学生Emily Haines（女主唱）与拥有茱莉亚学院古典音乐背景的James Shaw所领军的摇滚音乐组合，归类为朋克摇滚。我自然不清楚音乐的具体流派，只觉得非常喜欢。有股年轻女子才有的暴发力，却带着一股执着的天真劲。而声音也出奇的甜美。在清洁里她在舞台上的发型和自在表演更是让我倍增好感。
公制乐队是一支加拿大新潮流/独立摇滚乐队。1998年，这支乐队在纽约城诞生，他们现在立基于多伦多，安大略湖。这支乐队由歌手爱米莉。汉纳斯（Emily Haines）（她同时也担任混音师）吉他手詹姆斯。肖（James Shaw），贝斯手乔希。温斯坦德（Josh Winstead）和鼓手杰劳斯。特拉维斯·斯科特（Joules Scott-Key）组成。他们的第一张完整的专辑旧世界的地铁（Old World Underground）你在哪里（Where Are You Now?）在2003年发布。他们最新的专辑 live it out于2005年10月4日发布，并且作为年度来自加拿大乐队的专辑获得2006年Polaris音乐奖项的提名，同时也赢得了朱诺奖（Juno Award）最佳另类摇滚专辑的提名。汉纳斯和肖也和Broken Social Scene同台演出过。汉纳斯曾经在stars，KC Accidental, Delerium, The Stills和Jason Collett.的专辑中作过嘉宾。

Metric is a Canadian New Wave/indie rock band. Originally formed in 1998 in New York City, they are currently based in 多伦多, Ontario.The band consists of vocalist Emily Haines (who also plays the Synthesizer), guitarist James Shaw, bassist Josh Winstead and drummer Joules Scott-Key. Their first full-length album, Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?, was released in 2003. Their newest album, Live It Out, was released on October 4, 2005 and was nominated for the 2006 Polaris 音乐 Prize for the Canadian Album of The Year as well as earning the Juno Award nomination for Best Alternative Album.Haines and Shaw also perform with Broken Social Scene, and Haines has been a guest on albums by Stars, KC Accidental, Delerium, The Stills, and Jason Collett. Scott-Key and Winstead have their own side project, Bang Lime, and Haines has released a solo album under the name Emily Haines and the Soft SkeletonTheir songs "Monster Hospital" and "Police and the Private" have been used on the TELEVISION show Grey's Anatomy. "Monster Hospital" has also been used in CSI: Miami.
Metric’s latest album is actually their oldest, though you wouldn’t know 信息技术 Grow Up and Blow Away was previously unreleased until now, but this album is just as strong, if a little overly ambitious, than what would follow. Metric couldn’t find a label to release Grow Up and Blow Away, but they soldiered on and hit the radios (in Canada anyway) almost four years later with “Combat Baby”, which sparked so much attention that their album, Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? landed on many critics’ lists as the best of 2003. They seemed so great, where did these quirky Canadians come from anyway? Just like many so-called overnight successes, Metric had been building up to their breakthrough album for years. Focusing now on their newest release, by focusing on the past, Grow Up and Blow Away reveals that even at its inception, Metric was still a great band. This is a great album for the fans, full of interesting experiments and diverse sounds that are both very close to the Metric heard later, and also wildly different. In fact, wild enough that they reminded me at times of another deceptively soft Canadian group from the 90s, the Wild
