NEW ALBUM . OUT JULY 4TH
THE TITS OUT TOUR SUMMER 2025

In 1998, songwriting & production duo Emily Haines & Jimmy Shaw formed what would become Metric and left Toronto for NYC in search of like-minded artists. In 2001/2002, they were joined by drummer Joules Scott Key & bassist Joshua Winstead, and found themselves at the center of the city’s burgeoning alt-rock scene alongside bands like LCD Soundsystem, The Strokes, TV On the Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Interpol and more. Unlike their peers, Metric resisted major label offers, releasing albums that pushed boundaries on their own terms.

Metric’s relentless pursuit of timeless songwriting and fiercely independent ethos have cemented their place as one of the most essential and ahead-of-the-curve bands of the last two decades. By constantly upping themselves across nine unpredictable and adventurous studio albums, the trailblazing Toronto outfit founded by Emily Haines & Jimmy Shaw is proof that you can amass an untouchable catalog without signing to a major label or changing your lineup. Their latest LP, Formentera II, out October 13 via their label MMI & Thirty Tigers, is a testament to their singular purpose. It stands among their best and most genre-defying work and closes the 18-song cycle started by 2022’s critically acclaimed Formentera

Weaving in and out of alternative, indie, and dance, she makes manic pop irreverent of boundaries, yet reverent of truth. With streams in the hundreds of millions and widespread critical acclaim, she has sold out tours globally, made headlines from Coachella to Comic-Con, and collaborated with Travis Barker, deadmau5, Kaskade, Illenium, Steve Aoki, and Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park. The A6 cycle has already included a sold-out North American tour and a summer festival run in 2025. The 2026 deluxe edition A6EXTENDED features 8 new songs and will precede further international touring this winter.
