Catching up with The Metros!

TLC has been championing The Metros for quite some time now. We are happy to report that their debut album, More Money Less Grief, will be released in the UK on September 15!!! The album's preceded by single, Talk About It, out Sept. 8. The video premiered the other day and shows the boys giving chase throughout their native neighborhood of Peckham, South East London. Check out the vid for their usual good humored gobshite antics and heartwrenchingly cool (for me anyway) scenes of Peckham like Peckham Rye, Rye Lane, the SE overland train, the library and (OMG!!!) the P13 bus. Keepin' it locallll!

The Metros have been touring like crazy for what seems like forever and this summer and fall are no exception. They'll be opening for The Cribs at KOKO on August 19! Also if you're in London, be sure to check them out at McClusky's July 31 and The Borderline Sept 24.

I think we need to start the official campaign to bring them to NYC...hopefully it won't take too long.
