Most things are less miserable when you can dance around while doing them, I’ve found. Here are some songs to make packing suck less.
I prescribe this playlist as an antidote to most shitty ex situations.
Want to hear a new song from Metric? Thought so.
Let’s party. Then let’s cry.
Get the hell outta Dodge.
Metric announce their new record, Fiona Apple and tUnE-yArDs announce their new tour dates, and Sia denounces her pop stardom.
A little dose of audio xanax.
Emily Haines is badass.
Trapped inside living vicariously through your fun-having, summer-loving, concert-going friends? Perfect! Insatiable and Fearless Music Aficionado Sarah is back with another dispatch from Lollapalooza, which is probably a lot more fun than whatever you’re doing right now.
Metric churns out another video from their 2009 album ‘Fantasies,’ album sales hit record lows, Alanis Morissette gets married, Belle & Sebastian announces tour, and full lineups revealed for Rock The Bells and Lollapalooza. Autostraddle goes to Bonnaroo 2010 and also: Nicki Minaj and good music deals for you.
Canadian rockers Metric finally bring their powerful, crowd-pleasing synth rock to Australia. Indie heart-throb Emily Haines wins over a hardcore Melbourne crowd with smoking hotness and idiosyncratic dance moves, requests a spliff and receives candy instead. Audiostraddle’s contributing writer Isabelle takes us there.
“The plan was simple: get to Germany, soak up the city for the first evening, see as much of Berlin as possible the next day before attending brilliant Metric show, seduce Emily Haines, stay up all night in the city that never sleeps and fly back to Nantes at 7 A.M.”
