Formentera II [Pink Vinyl Indie] vinylsbase

Formentera II is a testament to the band’s unwavering love for each other and their insatiable desire to push themselves as artists. It’s a wildly experimental release that finds the band going into uncharted territory. It’s both a pleasurable salve for the present moment and a stark reminder of what’s left to do, nine inviting and alive songs forged out of personal upheaval and worldwide uncertainty. This is the kind of galvanizing music that only Metric, a group that’s consistently stayed true to each other and their ethics for decades, could create. “The battle as a band is not just to exist and thrive creatively 20 years in, but to be owning all our own material, to always be bringing our music to a wider audience and standing for something,” says Haines. “When people say indie, it's not just a guitar tone: it is actually really hard work. We've done it and we've stuck to our principles and maybe now it is finally paying off.”
