Verse Metrics compared to Interpol on ‘you sound great’

 

 

 

 

German language blog ‘you sound great‘ compare Verse Metrics to Interpol and offer a link to the free download track ‘Aches’. Thanks Christoph!

 

[box]Das neue Solo-Album von Paul Banks mag die hohen Erwartungen nicht ganz erfüllt haben, aber zum Glück gibt es ja noch jede Menge andere Bands, die Interpol nicht ganz unähnlich sind. Verse Metrics zum Beispiel. Das Quartett aus Glasgow veröffentlicht im Dezember seine neue EP “Radians”, vorab gibts mit dem vielversprechenden “Aches” schon mal einen kleinen Vorgeschmack zum kostenlosen Download. [/box]

 

If anyone wants to offer a translation that’s better than the gibberish that Google translate offers, then please be in touch 🙂

‘Aches’ featured on Glasgow PodcART

Verse Metrics’ free download single ‘Aches’ has been featured on the Glasgow PodcART blog accompanied by some kind words from Halina Rifai.

[box]‘Aches’ is a taster of what is to come. If this is a taster then I think it is safe to say that this could be the release that shows Scotland what a brilliant new export it has.

It is a huge track, and as an old-school grunge fan I almost hear threads of bands such as Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden interspersed amongst the mathematical rhythms and soaring melodies.

Verse Metrics have the means to tap into the brutal yet intelligent side of music and ‘Aches’ captures the essence of the band. They are well on their way to obtain mainstream acceptance whilst maintaining that firm handshake with the DIY underworld.[/box]

VM are booking gigs

Verse Metrics are taking bookings for gigs in late October/November 2012. If you would like to book Verse Metrics or are interested in having them play near you, please get in touch via the website contact form or by sending an email to info@versemetrics.com.

It’s been almost 8 months since Verse Metrics played as a full band. The last gig was on December 31st at Box’s Hogmanay Party so, understandably, the band are keen to get back to playing live.

There will be a series of live dates during this period, concentrating on Scotland’s major cities but no doubt will include some more off-beat locations too.

For a list of places VM have played in the past, see the Gig History page.
