- UncutApr 24, 2026Here they come dressed in post-punk garb. The arena singalong "Wild Rut" mutates into a piece of motorik new wave; the toytown confections of "Leave You On A High" and "Loyal" both come wreathed in ice gothic synths and Peter Hook-style bass plunking. [Jun 2026, p.33]
- Apr 24, 2026Romanticize the Dive is yet another great Metric album, another stunning showcase of Haines' second-to-none vocals, and an example of how if a band plays with emotional and sonic imagination, indie rock doesn't have to sound overcooked and insipid when it is blown up to twice its size.
- Apr 24, 2026It’s a retrospective album, in the sense that Romanticize the Dive is built out of all the twists and turns that have led Metric to the present. It is not, however, merely a retread of the band’s previous work, but another milemarker on Metric’s road forward.
