CASSETTE. Canada's METZ are a return to everything that's good about loud, ecstatic live music; a frantic nod to Nation of Ulysses, Shellac, the Pixies, the Jesus Lizard, and Public Image Ltd. At their most vicious, while carving out some heavy new business. METZ have been around for over three years, sharing stages with Mission of Burma, Mudhoney, Oneida, and NoMeansNo. METZ was produced by band and recorded by Graham Walsh (Holy F***) and Alexandre Bonenfant. METZ articulate with deafening clarity what we've known for some time: The world of good music needs a new power trio, and this is it.
