Metric’s Emily Haines spoke with NME recently with news about recording tracks for their next album.

We just got this amazing space and the first recording and writing sessions for Metric are in there right now. We’ve written about 15 songs. We’re starting to hone in and choose some of our favourites. It’ll be a summer album, regardless of when it’s released. It definitely will have a summer atmosphere.

Metric will be previewing new materials by playing at intimate shows in Canada. “We’re doing a few shows in that’ll be strictly new material,” Haines said. “We’ll play eight new songs and then an encore.”

The untitled album is set for release next year.
