With the range, depth and lyrical class Metronomy brings to Metronomy Forever, it's quite a fun listen, one that shows how the group has evolved over their lengthy career. The electronic orchestration will leave you bopping through memory lane as you reminisce on old love.
It's been 20 years since Joe Mount first wrote down the name Metronomy. Back then, it was a pipe dream, scrawled on a piece of paper while he made music in his childhood bedroom. Since then, he says, "everything's changed".
The 'Walking In The Dark' video is the age old tale of the guru and the fisherman set against a green screen backdrop.
As a teenager, Joseph Mount began Metronomy as a bedroom project while he was still living with his parents in Devon. After having an interest in music from an early age, he "drummed in a few bands at school and they all fell apart. Then I got an old computer off my dad and I started messing around when I was about sixteen or seventeen".
