{"product_id":"metz_metz_2026_mdl","title":"Metz","description":"METZ is the debut studio album by the Canadian band of the same name, released in 2012 by Sub Pop. METZ plays as one. A three-headed, thick-stringed instrument, with saturated guitars and a heavy bass line, all accompanied by the most massive rhythm section you've ever heard. It's a return to all that is most exhilarating in live music, heavy and ecstatic. A frenzied nod to the most vicious and dashing eras of bands like NATION OF ULYSSES, SHELLAC, THE PIXIES, THE JESUS LIZARD, or PUBLIC IMAGE LTD. They play with their instruments, their amps, and their audience. For three and a half years, they have been touring stages alongside DEATH FROM ABOVE or MISSION OF BURMA. For three and a half years, jaws have been dropping after 4 measures of their set. This debut album, produced by GRAHAM WALSH (HOLY FUCK) and ALEXANDRE BONENFANT, succeeds in capturing the band's energy while giving it new sonic textures. Organic waves build a typical tension, and crash into an incessant, dissonant pulse. But it's not all about riffs. You also have to look at the songwriting—something few bands of this genre possess—which METZ masters perfectly. The world of good music needed a new power trio, and it has one.","brand":"METZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56870330630488,"sku":null,"price":24003952.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/0098787101515.jpg?v=1779012382","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/metz_metz_2026_mdl","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
