‘II’ is the concussive new full length from Toronto’s METZ. Written and recorded in 2014, after two years of constant touring behind their rightly-adored, selftitled debut, ‘II’ is METZ at their most true to form, as pure an expression of what they do as can currently be committed to tape. The guitars are titanic, the drums ill-tempered, the vocals chilling and the volume worrisome. ‘II’ is the sound of an already monstrous band improving in both subtle and terrifying ways.
