"Metric is a juggernaut... their own sound, immune to trends or the zeitgeist."

“The group’s pulsating synthesizers and looming guitars carry new-wave urgency into the 21st century.”

“Defiance never sounded so good.”

"pulse-quickening pop glory"

 “All Comes Crashing” is the first offering from Metric's upcoming eighth studio album, Formentera, set to release on July 8th. “Not everyone has a conventional life with conventional relationships,” says front woman Emily Haines. “‘All Comes Crashing’” is a love song that goes beyond romantic love, it’s an expression of solidarity with whoever it is you would want to have beside you in the event of catastrophe. It might be your best friend, it might be your blood brother or your dog. The song is dedicated to those you consider your family, whatever that looks like for you.”

The words This Is What Happened flash across the screen in the video and have come to serve as the band’s motto as they reckon with the events of the last few years—a band at its peak of creative power attempting to decipher the turbulent world around us, with Haines positioned like a lightning rod in the midst of it, emerging with a fresh new album that sounds like essential Metric. 

The music video for Metric’s “All Comes Crashing” is the impressionistic vision of longtime collaborators Justin Broadbent & Emily Haines. Drawing inspiration from the visual aesthetic of Terence Malik and a pervasive sense of foreboding and claustrophobia, Broadbent uses shifting color and light effects to convey a spectrum of subtle emotions across a distorted temporal plane. “I love working with Justin on visual pieces like this,” says Haines. “Our primary aim with 'All Comes Crashing' was to create something that wouldn’t interfere with the experience of listening to the song, but instead would heighten the dreamy, sensual elements of it… we didn’t want to do anything that might detract from the essential tenderness of the track.”

Metric are a critically-acclaimed Toronto rock band consisting of Emily Haines, Jimmy Shaw, Joshua Winstead and Joules Scott Key.
