METZ is a noise rock band from Canada. Formed in Ottawa, Ontario, in 2007 by guitarist/vocalist Alex Edkins and drummer Hayden Menzies, two longtime friends. After a year of working on material, Edkins and Menzies moved to Toronto and expanded to a trio with the addition of bassist Chris Slorach.

The lineup consists of Alex Edkins on guitars and vocals since 2007, Hayden Menzies on drums since 2007, and Chris Slorach on bass since 2008.

Influenced by noise rock pioneers like The Jesus Lizard and Drive Like Jehu, METZ has developed their own unique sound characterized by raw energy and intense performances. With their relentless live shows and critically acclaimed albums, they have gained a dedicated following worldwide.

canada's metz are a return to everything that's good about loud, ecstatic live music; a frantic nod to nation of ulysses, shellac, the pixies, the jesus lizard, and public image ltd. at their most vicious, while carving out some heavy new business. metz have been around for over three years, sharing stages with mission of burma, mudhoney, oneida, and nomeansno. 'metz', the band's self-titled and formidable debut full-length was produced by the band and recorded by graham walsh (holy fuck) and alexandre bonenfant. both live and here on this record, metz articulate with deafening clarity what we've known for some time: the world of good music needs a new power trio, and this is it.
