If I had to pick an album from 2009 it would probably be Metric's Fantasies.
It was the first time I paid attention to Emily Haines' band, even though I had unconsciously listened to it in several Grey's Anatomy episodes, and I simply loved it.
When I listened to the album's first single, Help, I'm alive, on the radio it was love at first sight (you know what I mean). After that came even greater songs, such as Gimme sympathy, Sick muse or Gold Guns Girls.
Something funny happened to me with Metric: one day I didn't know them, the next day they were almost everywhere! Zombieland, The Vampire Diaries, Entourage, CSI: Miami... and of course, again, Grey's Anatomy.
I still remember the opening of the sixth episode in season six...
2. Metric - Blindness
Send us a blindfold. Send us a blade.
Tell the survivors help is on the way.
