    In May 2012, during the Sasquatch! Music Festival, Metric was promoting their fifth studio album, "Synthetica," which had been released just a few days prior on June 12, 2012. This album marked a significant point in their career, as it was the band's first release on their own label, Metric Music International, following their departure from major label Warner Music. The album explored themes of technology and alienation while maintaining their synth-pop sound, evident in the live performance of the title track showcased in the recording. Additionally, frontwoman Emily Haines' distinctive stage presence and the band's dynamic energy contributed to establishing them as a prominent force in the indie rock scene. The live performance is a reflection of the band's evolving artistry and their connection with fans during this pivotal moment.
