Metric

In early 2015, Metric was on the verge of releasing their sixth studio album, "Pagans in Vegas," which had come out the previous year in September. However, the live performance of "Just The Once" at the Ed Sullivan Theater on January 1, 2015, provided a glimpse into their upcoming work, "Formentera II." This moment marked a transitional period for the band, as they adeptly balanced their established sound with fresh compositions. Notably, Metric is recognized for their eclectic mix of indie rock and synth-pop, a style that resonated well during their live performances, showcasing their strong stage presence. Additionally, their appearance on "The Late Show" highlighted their growing prominence in the music scene, as they shifted gears toward a new musical direction with the anticipated album, reflecting their continual evolution as artists.
