Metric: "Monster Hospital"



Uploaded by: aaronetc
Video Description:
It would be easy to tire of Metric if not for songs like this. They have probably four or five really great songs in their catalog, and this one might be the best. At any rate, it's the one that I've perceived as the most important -- they played it on Late Night a couple months ago.
This performance fits the song perfectly. It's both frantic and manic, subdued at times and lost in outsized anger in others. As a piece of social commentary, it's less harsh and pointed than "IOU," the best song from their first LP, but it's just right (and coming at just the right time) to break
into the mainstream consciousness. I just hope some programming directors out there are listening.
