Emily Haines

Emily Haines may be the frontwoman for Toronto’s indie dance-rock music group Metric. Although her initial record arrived many years after Metric acquired formed, Haines acquired always been composing her own materials. Using the encouragement of a pal, Haines made a decision to record the music therefore they wouldn’t end up being ignored. After four many years of piecing together an record in four metropolitan areas (LA, Montreal, Toronto, NY) with several contributors she dubbed the Soft Skeleton, Last Gang Information released Knives DON’T POSSESS Your Back Sept 2006. The record, which leans toward a far more introspective, quieter strategy than Metric, features Scott Small of Sparklehorse, Justin Peroff of Damaged Social Picture, Evan Cranley of Superstars, and Adam Shaw of Metric, and received a whole lot of positive vital response. In July of the next year WHAT’S Free to an excellent House?, an EP that included five previously unreleased music from the Kitchen knives DON’T POSSESS Your Back classes and a remix of “Mainly Waving,” arrived.
