Also, they're side projects are heatin' up, as Pitchfork reports, "Metric's full-length debut, Grow Up and Blow Away, was recently reissued by Last Gang Records. Then, something new: Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton's What is Free to a Good Home? EP dropped earlier this week. There's also Bang Lime, the side project from Metric's rhythm section, bassist Josh Winstead and drummer Joules Scott-Key. Their debut album, Best Friends in Love, is out August 14 on Last Gang."
