Sunday night seems like a great time for some new music so I picked few releases of not very well-known, but really promising and decent bands which released a new album lately. The first of them is an indie band Metric from New York City with their new album Fantasies. Enjoy the 10 songs on this album in high audio bitrate a whole month before the street date!

Metric is a four piece band formed in NYC that has been based at various times in Toronto, Montreal, LA, and London. Their fourth full length studio album Fantasies is a much anticipated follow up to 2005s highly acclaimed Live It Out.

Fantasies was written by the band in a farmhouse outside Seattle, and by frontwoman Emily Haines in exile in Argentina. The album was recorded at guitarist Jimmy Shaws own Giant Studio in Toronto and mixed at Electric Lady in NYC by Grammy winner John OMahony (Coldplay, The Strokes). A densely textured modern mix of psychedlia, electro and rock, this album s dream like quality stays true to the band s aesthetic while venturing into more accessible musical territory. On standout track Gimme Sympathy, when sharp-tongued Haines invokes the age-old existential dilemma – Who would you rather be: The Beatles or The Rolling Stones – its because she already knows her answer: neither.
