Falsetto voices, and drum machines, and keyboards, oh my!



Been kicking around for quite some time now, Metronomy has gone from the pet project of Joseph Mount, to one of the quickest rising electronic bands in the UK. Whether as a solo project, trio, or more recently a duo after the departure of Gabriel Stebbing from the band, Metronomy have consistently delivered quirky, catchy, and always unique sounding songs. Metronomy is also well known for putting out some rather good remixes from the likes of Franz Ferdinand, Klaxons, CSS.

With the release of Nights Out, the band has seen a huge increase in their audience, due undoubtedly in part to the release of infectious singles like "A Thing For Me" (see video), as well as "Heartbreaker":

Metronomy - Heartbreaker

With their growing success in the UK, it seems time that some record company took time out from crafting the next answer to Lady Gaga, noticed what decent music sounds like, and released Metronomy's shit on this side of the pond.
