Toronto noise-punk trio METZ stops in Madison the day after the release of a new album, Strange Peace. The band’s latest effort achieves an accessible blend of explosive noise and infectious, unrelenting rhythms that hypnotize the listener, recalling both hardcore and shoe-gaze traditions. Expect a mosh pit, and an exhilarating night of familiar yet experimental rock-and-roll. Fellow punks Dasher and FACS open.
$18 ($15 adv.).
press release: The highly-anticipated third album by METZ, Strange Peace, will be out September 22, 2017, from Sub Pop Records (Worldwide, ex-Canada) and Royal Mountain Records (in Canada). The new METZ track, “Drained Lake,” is a propulsive, jagged thing; heavy 21st century post-post-punk, with an infectious sea-sick synth line added for good measure.
“Drained Lake” reflects “The constant struggle to know yourself and make sense of your life and surroundings. What is my purpose? Holding on to who you are while fending off pressure to bend to what other people want and expect from you,” says METZ frontman Alex Edkins.
