Lotsa splashing rock alternative bands come from Canada, like Metric. Bands which have brought a live stage to life. Of Metric's discography, I have to say Live It Out has got the most punch of all. It conclusively made it hard to beat, but the latest release Fantasies still remains one of the best album for 2009.

You see, Metric always manages to add that pinch of unknown spice within a song and breaks the conventional song structure we are all so familiar with (the verse, the chorus, then verse II, then the chorus again, then the breaker, then the chorus..i haven't got any decent musical technical terms in my catalogue besides THIS. Nevertheless, I'm sure you all get where I'm at.). I strongly sense from those videos, that Metric is better live than recorded. Emily Haines has got much more attitude and honesty in her singing when on stage. Plus the stage production / lighting. Shit like that always bring me to tears, of ecstatic happiness. On the album, it's a little more controlled, better pitch maybe. But we like them loud and raw. Just like that:
