METZ SHARES MAKING STRANGE PEACE VIDEO
INTERNATIONAL TOUR DATES CONTINUE THIS WEEK
Strange Peace is available now from Royal Mountain Records in Canada and Sub Pop Records throughout the rest of the world, and Toronto-based noise punk trio METZ have created a short film entitled Making Strange Peace, which captures the band during the recording process of their new album with engineer Steve Albini at Electrical Audio in Chicago. Entertainment Weekly premiered the film, and had this to say, βStrange Peace is not only their best yet, but one of the yearβs best rock releases.β
METZ also recently shared a new video for Strange Peaceβs lead single βCellophaneβ. As described by director Shayne Ehman, the visual depicts a sphere where βconsciousness is split, and a world of contrast unfolds. The resulting disembodiment disperses oneβs spatial awareness and new kinds of empathy develop. Two become three, and itβs only half the story.β
METZβs international tour schedule in support of Strange Peace is underway with dates in Montreal, Halifax, and Vancouver on the horizon. The tour currently runs through December 16th in Houston at Warehouse Live. During that run, METZ will serve as direct support for Modest Mouse on October 10th and 11th.
Additionally, METZ will play shows with Uniform (October 2nd-8th), Protomartyr (November 2nd-8th), Brian Case (November 9th), Drahla (November 12th-24th), newly-signed labelmates Moaning (December 7th-16th), and Cherubs (December 15th). All of their current tour dates follow.
METZ have also scheduled a Pitchfork Live performance for Thursday, October 5th at noon EST.
