The multi-talented musical make-up of METRO offers huge scope for future projects. METRO consider themselves an ALBUM band, and confidently state ...we always have an albums worth of songs, and quickly added with a cheeky grin, and of course we have sleeves full of singles.
With the drive, ambition and commitment that is METRO, it is now only, a matter of time before their vision becomes a reality. |

Artist History
METRO came together midway through 1996, and, as individuals, had already accumulated considerable experience within the music-making scene.
The hard work of the band since that time has given them an edge. The close bond that has grown between the band members now allows their considerable musical ability to shine through in the confidence and style that is METRO.
The team of five lads have now accumulated a substantial amount of gigging experience. A highlight of which was performing at the 97 Womad Festival in Reading. Their performance skill was honed during two one month residencies in a popular Italian Ski Resort, playing seven days a week, three hours a night.
The lads have considerable commercial appeal with youth and good looks - but more important is their on-stage presence; the polished professionalism that is their unique and exciting form of rock n roll. |

Press Reviews
Melody Maker - July 25 1998 Holly Hernandez Reviewing: Roller EP.
'BLIMEY. This starts off like The Verve, circa "Storm In Heaven" - all spacey backwards guitar delay and shuffled beats, then niftily changes tack, flirting with Byrds-style multi-layered harmonies, before hurtling headlong into a "Good Day Sunshine"-type chorus.
Imacculately executed, this is a triumph in plagurism if nothing else, and quite impressive in a reproductive kind of way.
They'll probably go far.'
