Metros - More Money Less Grief

2008 debut album from the punkish, revved-up Britpopsters. Bottled down, it is essentially a rhythmic, anthemic, schizoid punkoid stream of tourettes-iousness that fits as much sound tracking mischief on the streets of their native Peckham as on any in this Fair Isle. Produced by their mate Baxter Dury, More Money Less Grief avoids the clichéd one dimensional formula often adopted by young bands today; Incorporating and invoking Pop hooks, thrashy Punk Rock, hummable choruses, tongue-in cheek humor, frank pub-crawl tales of teenage sex and adventure, whilst still capturing the youthful exuberance that makes them uniquely The Metros. 1965.
