1. • • Although Metric has never been “the band that’s gonna change the world one dance party at a time,” as drummer Scott-Key jokes, a drive for progress has always steered Metric — not just politically, but artistically speaking. While it’s easy for bands to cash in on nostalgia, Metric have been steadfast in dodging such complacency since their onset.

   Are metric a good band?

   • Whatever “mainstream rock” means nowadays, Metric probably qualify for that designation. But they’re also a much better band than whatever baggage that label might carry, and they’ve stayed true to their roots throughout their two-decade-long career.

   Is metric a good album?

   • It’s the only album in Metric’s discography that I’d venture is actually pretty bad. They recorded it during their stadium tour supporting Imagine Dragons, and it has more than a little in common with that sort of vapid grocery-store rock. It pulls from the ’80s a lot, too, steeped in nostalgia for Depeche Mode and New Order.

   Who is Metric Music?

   • Metric is a juggernaut, as Canadian an institution as Tim Hortons or stories about raccoons. They’re their own distributor—all their albums since Fantasies have come out on their own label, Metric Music International—and their own sound, immune to trends or the zeitgeist.

   What do metric and vital rock bands have in common?

   • Vital rock acts like Wolf Alice and Paramore, towering synth acts like M83 and the late School of Seven Bells—they, and Metric, have one thing in common: an affinity for albums that sound enormous. Metric do succumb to one trend, namely the streaming-era impulse to make albums about 18 minutes longer than they need to be.

   How many albums does metric have?

   • But, with seven albums under Metric's belt and thousands of fans filling venues, Haines' main measure of success is a number that is much smaller than that: "As long as the four of us are OK — [and] a lot of things go into that being the case — then I feel successful."
