Woot! Single #2!!
The new METZ track, “Drained Lake”, is a propulsive, jagged thing; heavy 21st century post-post-punk, with an infectious sea-sick synth line added for good measure. Strange Peace is their highly-anticipated third full-length album.

“Drained Lake” reflects “The constant struggle to know yourself and make sense of your life and surroundings,” says METZ frontman Alex Edkins. “What is my purpose? Holding on to who you are while fending off pressure to bend to what other people want and expect from you.”
