This new Metric album is a fresh new direction for the long-time indie rock band. We see their synthpop sound being added to a more alternative dance drive that many may find exciting, I find the album to be a mixed bag with some good and some bad. Nothing awful but boring all that memorable either.

Metric deserves praise for coming out swinging with Doomscroller: longer than any song they've ever released by a good 3 minutes and more interesting, apocalyptic, and yet somehow more effortless than they've sounded in awhile. It all comes across as peaceful, engaging, and incredibly graceful. From languid tracks like Formentera to the immense bop of False Dichotomy, to the hopeful Paths in the Sky - the whole record rolls on by. Inspired by the band's visit to the Balearic isle of Formentera, it's hard not to think of blue waves and warm skies while listening. There's an element of unease - the air is warmer, the water is a few centimeters higher this year. Will it - will we - be here tomorrow? For now, it feels good to stop scrolling and enjoy the moment.

Possibly their most ambitious and polished project that flows wonderfully. With the album opener, (Doomscroller) the epic, synth driven track showcases their talents more than ever before. The synth, alternative dance sound they have implemented continues incredibly well throughout the album and brings a new side to the band that will not disappoint.
