andrewlucas Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 It sounded more like Emily decided to just make a Metric album without telling the band. Haha. I like all Metric albums but this one. I still might buy it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I still dont have Fantasies. :/ That stupid 7" box set is all messed up and they eventually stopped responding to me about getting it fixed. All I asked for was different labels to put over the mislabeled ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oilerguy Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 Thanks! Picked one up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Logan Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Definitey considering it, I just realized I don't own any of Metric on wax and that's just a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yancey47 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 . It's a Christ album. It died so the others can live. Has some decent songs. But 30 bucks with shipping is too much for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combatwaffle Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 actually all their releases are available on their website http://ilovemetric.com/store/ Oh my god, I love you. I NEED Fantasies. I've been kicking myself in the ass ever since I didn't buy it when it was in stores. patreeeek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWALL Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I got into this band from all the CBC Hockey Montages. Also this montage in particular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I've been meaning to order a few things from their site but shipping is a bitch from Canada. It adds like an extra $20 onto my order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewlucas Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Yeah. $30. My actual order is only $88 for 3 LPs and 2 7"s. Not bad but that $30 shipping is the deal breaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patreeeek Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Any chance anyone has a promo code for the Metric store? I doubt any exist but I figured I'd ask. It's really hard to pass up Fantasies when it's basically sitting right in front of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowty Dollaz Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Thanks so much for this Qwerty! I've been looking for ways to get my wife slightly involved in my vinyl addiction and I'd say Metric is one of the best places to start. I grabbed Fantasies and Synthetica. I'm going to grab the others soon too. ALL OF IT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drds89 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Last Gang Records has 15% off through today. Of course I ordered 2 days before the special and they would not honor it though I could have cancelled and reordered. The other reason posting is I like this album a lot and also when emailing about the coupon the PR man said I could have 15% off my next order. I told him I doubt would be ordering unless they repress Fantasies which he said they are planning to do in 2015. Because of CAN$ at 0.8, my shipping for 3 LPs was $16 ($5.33 each) and the LPs were $14-16 each without discount code. Emily & Soft Skeleton is on sale now. Murphy's Law. But my 'loss' can be your gain if you were holding off ordering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Interesting re the hockey post above is I first heard them at the outdoor game in Calgary when it was about 15 degrees and they played Stadium Love Also my sons favorite player of all time is Marty Brodeur and modeled his goalie style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patreeeek Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Fantasies is available on ilovemetric.com I just picked this up a few weeks ago. I couldn't believe I could get it for $25 when it's $70 or more on eBay & Discogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drds89 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Fantasies is available on ilovemetric.com edit: >$31ppd to USA, which I have paid for single LP 180gm before, but usually not large pressings. The others from Last Gang were $19-21ppd (and could have been 15% less) dubvulture 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubvulture Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 How well are the records packed from ilovemetric? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowty Dollaz Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 How well are the records packed from ilovemetric?Pretty well. I've received 5 albums (2 in one mailer/ 3 in another) between 2 shipments and all have been in near perfect condition. I think Synthetica had a slightly bent corner, but it was nothing substantial. dubvulture 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huh? What? Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Has anyone got Grow Up and Blow Away? Unpopular opinion here but it's my favourite Metric album, saw it was a limited edition release so I've decided to order it even with stupid shipping prices to the UK, can't believe I've only just realised this got pressed.
