Product Information

Their 2008 album 'Nights Out' is a second album that feels like a debut. Its the first Metronomy album for label Because Music; the first to be

vocal-led, with self-effacing founder member Joseph Mount stepping up and grabbing the mic for most of the tracks; and, crucially, the first to

introduce Metronomy as a three-piece band, rather than a pseudonym for Joseph's solo work. Although Joseph has worked with Gabriel Stebbing

(bass, keyboards) and Oscar Cash (sax, keyboards) since their Devon childhoods, its the success of the trio's live shows that has led to the realisation

that the three schoolfriends are a bonafide group. 'I've never liked solo artists and their session musicians. It just always seems totally wrong,

particularly live. I write the songs, but Gabriel and Oscar contribute a lot more than just playing them. It just became obvious that we were a band

now.' It's also a deliberate attempt to defy perceived wisdom about MP3 culture and the wilfully low attention span of those pesky, thieving noughties

pop kids. 'It was an unashamed concept album at the beginning. I keep having conversations with people who keep going on about the industry and

how CDs are history, and people just listen to things on shuffle. And I'm like, "Oh, for fuck's sake!" This is totally the music industry's fault! They're

the ones who decided to keep putting two good songs on an album! I guarantee you - if labels started releasing good albums it wouldn't be a

problem.
