NEWS: METZ celebrate Record Store Day with Sparklehorse cover
METZ cover Sparklehorse for Record Store Day
Exclusive 7" available April 21 at Sonic Boom
In
celebration of Record Store Day 2012, Toronto's post-hardcore
distortionists METZ contribute their previously unreleased cover of
Sparklehorse's "Pig" for an exclusive 7-inch for prominent Toronto
record store Sonic Boom.
Limited
to 150 copies and available only at Sonic Boom, each record was
hand-screened and hand-numbered. METZ share the 7-inch split with
Toronto's newest krautrock experimentalists Fresh Snow.
When friend and Sonic Boom owner Jeff Barber asked if METZ were interested in participating, they jumped at the chance. "We had this Sparklehorse cover that we recorded during the sessions for our new record and this seemed like a good way to release it."
The split 7-inch will be released this Saturday April 21 in honour of Record Story Day.
Both songs are available for stream on Soundcloud:
