GREEN VINYL
2019 EXPANDED VERSION
NUMBERED
GATEFOLD SLEEVE
As Metronomy work on their forthcoming sixth
album, they take a moment to reflect on the 10th
anniversary of their breakthrough album ‘Nights
Out’. Metronomy’s Joseph Mount has delved into
the archives for ‘Nights Out: 10th Anniversary
Edition’ which will be released on February 8th on
Because Music.
It features the original critically acclaimed album
alongside a second LP which expands upon
Mount’s vision with a set of unreleased demos,
rarities and b-sides - many of which make their first
appearance on vinyl. Two of the highlights come
with alternative versions which have become
staples of the Metronomy live set: a bedtime dub
version of ‘Holiday’ which takes it into a darker,
glitchier direction, and a French-language version of
‘Heartbreaker’.
Mount’s Francophile leanings are also explored in
Breakbot’s remix of ‘A Thing For Me’, which
contrasts French touch vibes with Mount’s distinctly
English-accented vocals. Previously issued on an
exclusive Rough Trade bonus disc, ‘Over’ is an
instrumental of cinematic scale, while the disc
closes with four previously unreleased demos
including the leftfield minimalism of ‘Das Booty’.
Although Metronomy’s 2006’s debut album ‘Pip
Paine (Pay The £5000 You Owe)’ was discovered by
those in the know, it was ‘Nights Out’ that captured
the imagination of a much wider audience. Mount
achieved the seemingly impossible: he highlighted
both the joyous atmosphere of a big night out and a
taste of the resultant comedown in a set that
playfully veered towards being a concept album.
About Nights Out Joseph Mount says: “Oscar
reminded me the other day how I said to him on
completing Radio Ladio ‘I think I’ve just written my
first number 1’. I hadn’t. We also reminisced about
the day we borrowed the Honda Insight for the
album artwork: I found the owner on an enthusiast
chat room, we gave his daughter two Kate Nash
tickets and a meet and greet with Kate in exchange
for a few shots with the vehicle… simpler times.
Shout out to Myspace.”
Metronomy’s most recent album ‘Summer 08’ was
released in 2016 to widespread critical acclaim. DIY
described it as a “pure-pop odyssey” and NME
concluded, “Mount has done it again. He could write
music about the impact of Brexit on the UK’s trade
with China and make it sound amazing. He’s that
good.”
Metronomy bring 2018 to a close when they play
Edinburgh’s Hogmanay Street Party on December
31st. The 65,000 capacity show is headlined by
Franz Ferdinand and completed by Free
Love.
