After overcoming a classic case of writer’s block, Canadian quartet Metric has delivered an accomplished fourth album Fantasies. Its first single Help, I’m Alive has enjoyed widespread success after it was leaked from a pressing plant in Europe. It’s got all of Metric’s indie-pop hallmarks, with frontwoman Emily Haines (she of Broken Social Scene and two solo albums) in fine voice.

Now the song has an acid-drenched video to go with it, which FasterLouder is proud to be premiering. Check it out HERE. When you’re done with that, have a read of our recent chat with the band’s co-founder and lead guitarist Jimmy Shaw.
