"Dreamy and poignant! Really interesting mix of instruments. There is something I really enjoy about this band other than the fact I grew,up in a northern town!" Reply
"Metric achieve their most consistent and well-put together record since Fantasies in this indie rock album.

"For the Flying Burrito Brothers' second album Bernie Leadon ( Eagles ) replaced Etheridge and third former Byrds man, Michael Clarke, became a permanent drummer in the band.
