Hoopla, Weird Nightmare’s Stunning New Record Is Available Friday, May 1st

On Friday, May 1st, Weird Nightmare will release Hoopla, the engaging and melodic second LP from former METZ frontman Alex Edkins.
 
Every band worth its salt has a member who worked in a record store. In METZ, the fearless noise rock trio who released five full-length albums on Sub Pop between 2012 and 2024, it was singer and guitarist Alex Edkins. Slinging indie rock and hardcore records in his hometown record store while attending university, Edkins became an ardent student of rock ‘n’ roll; from the psychedelic 1960s to the DIY 1990s and beyond. The new Weird Nightmare album Hoopla, mixes and matches these wide-ranging influences in fun, exhilarating combinations, showcasing his sophisticated musical mind. Bursting to life with hooks and earworms.
 
Co-produced by Edkins and Spoon’s Jim Eno at Seth Manchester’s Machines With Magnets in Providence, RI. Edkins expands Weird Nightmare’s dimensions to new heights, gilding the direct emotions of his straightforward songwriting with musical textures such as piano, bells, and castanets, giving these well-wrought tunes a shiny luster.
 
Following the previously released single “Forever Elsewhere,” which Stereogum called “… an undeniably infectious power-pop anthem”, Weird Nightmare has shared an official video for their new song, “Might See You There,” which was directed by CC Mulligan.
 
Edkins shares about the track: “‘Might See You There’ is about going back to visit my hometown and being flooded with teenage nostalgia. Small-town boredom and isolation almost feel like a gift in today’s highly connected world. I feel fortunate for that time spent idly, down in the basement, learning the entire Rancid “Let’s Go” album on guitar with my friends. I find it easy to romanticise that time in my life, even though I was, without question, a disgruntled kid who badly wanted to escape my surroundings and see the world.
 
“I was listening to a lot of the Irish bands The Undertones and Protex while writing this one, and I think there is a fair bit of their influence. Just the simplicity and big bar chords mostly.
Seth Manchester and I were very into the idea of adding piano and bells to the outro, akin to the Phil Spector-produced “End of the Century” album by The Ramones. The great Julianna Riolino sings with me on the choruses, too!”
 
Weird Nightmare is also announcing North American, UK and European headline dates beginning on April 14th in San Diego, with festival appearances at the Soundscape NW Festival in Portland, on April 28th with labelmates Bully, and a 5-date Canadian run in June with Wintersleep. Additional live dates will be announced soon.

What people have said about Weird Nightmare:
“Weird Nightmare is all about hooks and melody. Still delivered with levels in the red, but these are ultracatchy powerpop songs first and foremost, and really good ones at that.” - Brooklyn Vegan
 
“The debut Weird Nightmare album from METZ guitarist/vocalist Alex Edkins is a hook-filled set of blown-out power-pop with distorted guitars, punchy rhythms and bright pop melodies.” - KEXP
 
“Alex Edkins finally lets those melodies loose, resulting in an irresistibly euphoric blast of feedback spattered garage-pop that is just what the doctor ordered to chase away any lingering post-lockdown blues.’” - The Quietus
 
“All chiming chords and smart harmonies, Wrecked is a boisterous ode to ’90s indie-rock and everything that followed.” -  [“Wrecked”] Guitar World

Weird Nightmare, the Power Pop Band From Alex Edkins of METZ, Shares Official Video for “Forever Elsewhere”

Weird Nightmare, the power pop-leaning project from METZ guitarist and singer Alex Edkins, has shared an official video for the new single “Forever Elsewhere,” available today on all digital service providers. Co-produced with Jim Eno of Spoon “Forever Elsewhere” is an upbeat and invigorating blast of rock guitar and irresistible hooks. It illustrates a clear departure from the lo-fi bedroom recordings of the Weird Nightmare debut LP and a big step forward into wide screen high-fidelity, shout-along anthems.
 
Edkins says about the song: “‘Forever Elsewhere’ is the most optimistic song I’ve written to date. I wanted to send an unequivocal positive message into the world. The line ‘Love, it will come,’ summarizes the overall theme: if things feel hopeless and the world is bleak, don’t give up, keep pushing. I like to think of it as a pep talk wrapped in fuzzy guitars.
 
I recorded with Seth Manchester (he engineered the last two METZ records) and Jim Eno (Spoon), and we tracked this one really quickly. Drummer Loel Campbell (Wintersleep) and Roddy Kuester (Julianna Riolino/Sadies) nailed it in 2 takes, and you can really hear the ramshackle energy in the song where the wheels almost fall off a couple of times. We tried to keep it loose.”
 
You can watch the charming and very fun new video here and now, shot on Super 8 film, and directed by long-time collaborator and friend, Colin Medley.
 
The band is confirmed to perform live on Oct. 10th at Nowadays Festival in Halifax and Oct. 11th at Sportsmans in Charlottetown, Canada with more North American touring to follow in 2026.

 

Fri. Oct. 10 - Halifax, NS - Nowadays Festival
Sat. Oct. 11 -  Charlottetown, PEI - Sportsmans  

Best known as the vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter of Toronto noise rock legends METZ, Edkins has allowed his pop sensibilities to flourish under the Weird Nightmare moniker, releasing a full-length album in 2022 and a series of ultra-catchy singles on Sub Pop Records. Imagine The Breeders covering Big Star, or the gloriously hissy miniature epics of classic-era Guided by Voices combined with the bombast of Copper Blue-era Sugar—just tons of red-line distortion cut with the type of tunecraft that thrills the moment it hits your ears.

METZ Reunite for One Triumphant Night to Perform “A Boat to Drown In” On Netflix’s Everybody’s Live With John Mulaney

On Wednesday, April 23rd, Canadian punk/noise-rock greats METZ reunited for an exceptional, one-time-only TV performance of “A Boat to Drown In,” on the April 2025 Christmas episode of Everybody’s Live With John Mulaney on Netflix. Watch now.
 
“A Boat to Drown In,” specifically requested by and a favorite of John Mulaney, appears on the band’s acclaimed 2020 Sub Pop album Atlas Vending. METZ’s most recent (and, as it turns out, final) album is the equally acclaimed 2023 release Up On Gravity Hill. Both are available worldwide from Sub Pop.
 

“‘A Boat to Drown In’ presents the more melodic side of Metz. It still slaps mighty hard, but all that noise congeals into a droning harmonic barrage that surges forward at high speed for nearly eight minutes. “ Stereogum
 
“METZ are back with the chaotic noise-rock anthem of the summer.” Louder
 
“…a roaring and introspective track.” The Observer
 
“Propelled forward by the most satisfyingly scuzzy guitars, the near-eight minute track is a melding point of gnarliness, an immersion therapy of punk.” DIY
 
“…the Toronto trio have released their best material to date with this (eight-minute) new single.” The Independent ‘I’

Watch METZ’s Official Video for “Superior Mirage”

On Friday, April 12th, METZ will release Up On Gravity Hill, their first new album in four years, worldwide on Sub Pop and in Canada on Dine Alone. Today, the band is sharing an official video for the album highlight “Superior Mirage,” directed by John Andrews.
 
METZ frontman Alex Edkins shares this of the song, “It’s definitely new territory for us, and I really love the sounds we were able to achieve. We blended a Linn Drum with some homemade samples and made this ad-hoc junkyard drum sound that propels the song along. We really tried to make the backbeat the defining trait of the song. The lift on the chorus is pretty huge, too. We wanted the wall of guitars to knock you sideways.”
 
Up On Gravity Hill was engineered by Seth Manchester (Mdou Moctar, Lingua Ignota, Battles, The Body) and features guest performances from Amber Webber of Black Mountain and composer/string arranger Owen Pallett.
 
METZ, a band once known for blowing out eardrums with songs of joyous rage, have, over their past few records, begun exploring ways to turn abrasiveness into atmospherics, the evolution of their sound not only a reflection of the maturing of the band themselves but also of a changed world that demands nuance and compassion to comprehend and to survive. This is so on their latest effort, Up On Gravity Hill, which finds the band continuing to bend the raw power of rock music to its most delicate, intricate ends. Delivering a deep, detailed, and unyieldingly personal collection of songs that are fused together to form not only METZ’s most powerful record to date but also their most beautiful.
 
As previously announced, METZ has a headlining international tour scheduled supporting Up On Gravity Hill, with dates in North America from April 17th to May 17th and a run of UK and EU dates in the fall from November 3rd through November 29th. The band also has a series of UK and EU festival performances in August, including stops at The Green Man Festival in the UK, La Route Du Rock and Cabaret Vert Festival in France, and the Canela Party in Spain.

METZ Share Official Video for “Light Your Way Home” (Feat. Amber Webber of Black Mountain)

On April 12th, METZ will release their prodigious new album, Up On Gravity Hill, via Sub Pop (World, ex-Canada) and Dine Alone (Canada.) Following the previously released tracks “99” and “Entwined (Street Light Buzz)” comes the album’s gorgeous closer “Light Your Way Home,” which features vocal contributions from Amber Webber of Black Mountain.
 
METZ frontman Alex Edkins shares, ” ’Light Your Way Home’ is definitely one of our favorites from Up On Gravity Hill. I was listening to lots of Jesu and Low (as I do most winters) when writing this one. Lyrically, it’s about missing your loved ones to the point of losing your grip on reality. We distorted and added a mechanical slap back to the drums to create a wild and huge sound. I love how big we got the production on this one. It’s like nothing we’ve ever made before, sonically or lyrically. Amber Webber (Black Mountain, Lightning Dust) was so great to work with, and her voice just takes this song to another stratosphere. I think the video by Colin Medley perfectly captures the vibe and intent of the song.”

The Amazing New METZ Album Up On Gravity Hill Is Out Worldwide April 12th

On April 12th, METZ will release Up On Gravity Hill, their first album in 4 years, on Sub Pop for the world ex-Canada and in Canada on Dine Alone. The album was engineered by Seth Manchester (Mdou Moctar, Lingua Ignota, Battles, The Body) and features guest performances from Amber Webber of Black Mountain and composer/string arranger Owen Pallett.
 
METZ, a band once known for blowing out eardrums with songs of joyous rage, have, over their past few records, begun exploring ways to turn abrasiveness into atmospherics, the evolution of their sound not only a reflection of the maturing of the band themselves but also of a changed world that demands nuance and compassion to comprehend and to survive. This is so on their latest effort, Up On Gravity Hill, which finds the band continuing to bend the raw power of rock music to its most delicate, intricate ends. Delivering a deep, detailed, and unyieldingly personal collection of songs that are fused together to form not only METZ’s most powerful record to date but also their most beautiful.
 
To spotlight this evolution, the band has shared two new contrasting singles: the stomping motorik “99,” and the charging and deeply melodic, “Entwined (Street Light Buzz)”, that offers a dreamier Swervedriver-esque guitar sheen never before utilized by the Canadian trio. 
 
METZ frontman Alex Edkins says, “These two songs couldn’t be more stylistically and thematically dissimilar. ‘Entwined (Street Light Buzz)’ is a song about the deep connection humans can foster with one another and how we carry people with us forever, even after death. ‘99’ is about the scourge of corporate greed and bottom-line thinking that runs rampant in modern society. Anything for a buck is the message being sent to younger generations.”
 
METZ is also announcing headlining international tour dates supporting Up On Gravity Hill, with dates in North America from April 17th to May 17th and a run of UK and EU dates in the fall from November 3rd through November 29th. The band also has a series of UK and EU festival performances in August, including stops at The Green Man Festival in the UK, La Route Du Rock and Cabaret Vert Festival in France, and the Canela Party in Spain.
