Metric.

In about…half an hour, I’ll be having a phone interview with Emily and James from Metric. Am I nervous? Hell yes. But I’m also stupidly excited.

Anyway, what I wanted to share was this clip I just found on YouTube (it was added a few hours!). Now, my favourite track off the new album is Front Row..closely followed by Blindness. So, I thought I’d type it in YouTube to see if there’s any live clips. Not only is it live..but…IT’S ACOUSTIC!!! Acoustic songs by Metric=THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD. It is so so so so beautiful. It actually brought tears to my eyes. I’ve got it on repeat.

Metric- Front Row (acoustic).

Enjoy!

Oh…does anyone else think Emily looks a bit like Leisha Hailey (she isΒ in The L Word and plays in a band called Uh Huh Her!)

Uh Huh Her

Uh Huh Her, not just an album by the legend PJ Harvey. Oh no, it’s the name of a not so new female American two piece band.

Electo/rock ish band, I suppose is how you could describe them. Personally, I’d say they were wonderful but as usual I am being biased and I never really tell you about bands I don’t like πŸ™‚ Not A Love Song is one of the few tracks I cannot stop playing which is probably annoying anyone that knows me. I’m not going to apologise though. I love Uh Huh Her and I’m not the only one.

One thing that is ever so slightly pissing is that I can’t get hold of the album due to England being ever so slightly crap with getting imported CDs. However, I’ll make do with watching the videos on YouTube πŸ™‚
