metricThree reasons to see Metric at Cubby Bear tonight…

1. Better known for their stint in Canadian super collective Broken Social Scene, singer Emily Haines and guitarist Jimmy Shaw are the backbone of the band Metric. Its fourth album Fantasies is one of the better ones released in 2009.

2. The Canadian indie pop quartet will have you shaking those hips to songs new and old such as “Dead Disco” and “Gold Gun Girls,” if you choose to brave the weather and Cubs fans in Wrigleyville.

3. Still not convinced? Check out Metric performing “Satellite Mind” at the Metro back in June. 

9:00 PM. Wednesday, 12/16, Cubby Bear: Wrigleyville. 21+. $10. -- Audrey Leon
