Featuring Cindy Lee, Nemahsis, Wyatt C. Louis, and more — These Canadian artists all commandeered our headphones this year in a compelling way.
METZ’s Up On Gravity Hill is a fitting swan song for the Toronto post-hardcore trio, who announced their breakup shortly after the album’s release in April.
Expanding on their signature distortion-drenched fury, the album balances crushing intensity with newfound emotional vulnerability, featuring guest contributions from Owen Pallett and Amber Webber. Tracks like “Superior Mirage” and “Light Your Way Home” showcase their boldest sonic experimentation yet, cementing this as a powerful and heartfelt farewell to a legendary band.
