Formentera by Metric
Formentera is an album by Metric, released in 2022. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 12 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “All Comes Crashing”, on 12 lists and voted number one once.
Formentera, Metric's eighth studio album, arrived on July 8, 2022, through Metric Music International and Thirty Tigers, more than two decades after Emily Haines and James Shaw started out as a duo in Toronto. The full four-piece, with Joshua Winstead on bass and Joules Scott-Key on drums, sounds lean and widescreen here, Haines's cool, glassy voice floating over pulsing synths and Shaw's shimmering guitars.
Lead single "All Comes Crashing" is the rush, a propulsive, anxious anthem with a chorus that hits like a wave. "Doomscroller", "What Feels Like Eternity" and "False Dichotomy" followed it out as singles, and the band went back to the same well a year later with Formentera II.
