METRIC (London Electric Ballroom, 19/05/09)



I always forget what a vivacious frontwoman Emily Haines is. Light-years away from her delicate “Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old Girl” persona, she’s a whirlwind of unstoppable energy who often succeeds in disguising the weakness of her recent material by sheer force of personality alone. A very entertaining evening, despite the lack of “Poster Of A Girl”- I’d forgotten what a tune “Dead Disco” was.
