Last weekend Metric and Silversun Pickups played a secret party in SF at the legendary North Beach club Bimbos. 'Ding Dong' was the password. As usual Emily Haines stole the show, and hearts of every guy there.Great time for all.

Review by: AliciaPhotos by: David ThaiI’m not really sure where to start because Metric has left me pretty blown away.

It's been a hot second since Metric's last album Monster Hospital (which was a pretty solid album). They've just announced a new tour (check the dates after the jump) called the "Help, I'm Alive Tour" and features Tokyo Police Club, The Dears, and Sebastien Grainger and the Mountains.

One of my most Trusted MOGgers (Hi, poeby!) followed a link to an older post and marveled at the provocative nature of the subject matter and the thoughtful give-and-take in the thread. Then she asked, "Whatever happened to this kind of post at MOG?" So I floated a couple of theories.Maybe the core group of MOGgers - the initial wave - covered so many bases in our first couple of years at MOG t...
