Metric - Fantasies (2009)

It's really hard not to like this, even though I really used to dislike them. This is a far more cohesive album than their past ones though. Furthermore, all the songs are really good. It isn't like there's that one or two I could do without. They have this radio-friendly synth pop down to a science, but they fail to write a song without a brilliant pop hook. Which ones I listen to is usually a matter of the ones I'm in the mood for at a given moment, rather than some that are better than the rest, but this is such a short album I can easily sit through it. Notice the random combinations of nouns for song titles (Satellite Mind, Stadium Love, Twilight Galaxy, Gold Guns Girls). At least it's better than "Succsexy."
