Finally, a Metric DVD I don't have to watch with my Kaplan math tutor. Canadian synth-rock superstars Metric will issue the live DVD Live at Metropolis February 12 on Last Gang Records. It captures the band in action at a Fall 2006 Montreal stop on their Live It Out tour, and also includes the videos for Live It Out's three singles.

To sweeten an already sugary deal, iTunes will offer a Live at Metropolis EP come mid-December. It will feature "Patriarch on a Vespa", "The Police and The Private", and "Too Little Too Late" from the Metropolis set, as well as the DVD trailer, for less than a buck.

If all this live stuff has got you salivating for a Metric show, well, you're gonna make a puddle before that happens. Metric's recent tour with Crystal Castles has wrapped, with no future dates scheduled for now. Makes you wish there was some kind of concert film or something to tide you over in the interim, don't it? Hey...
