The Metros More Money Less Grief Review
Review date: 07.10.2008
Our rating:
With a sound that mixes everything from The Libertines to Squeeze and plenty more inbetween, The Metros are constantly walking the narrow line between being diverse and derivative.
When they’re on the wrong side of the line you get empty lyrics and a delivery as sophisticated as a terrace chant, but in their stronger moments The Metros are capable of creating catchy hooks accompanied by cheeky observations that save the album from it’s weaknesses.
More Money Less Grief is far from the perfect debut, but its enjoyable and full of promise.
