  8. Metz: Toronto trio is all out, all the time

    A few weeks ago, the Toronto trio Metz was played a midafternoon gig at the South by Southwest Music Conference in Austin, Texas, with such fury that the welt-inducing performance left me questioning the band members’ physical well-being and sanity. Alex Edkins was wrestling his guitar to the ground like it was a writhing alligator. Chris Slorach was pogoing while screwing his bass guitar into an amplifier. Drummer Hayden Menzies was pounding so hard it sounded like he was banging on industrial oil drums instead of a trap kit. They carried on like this for 10-plus minutes as they torched a song called “Wet Blanket.” How the heck do they play this passionately every night while on tour?

  11. Jon Langford's circuitous route from punk to country music

    Jon Langford took the long route to country music. Being a punk pioneer in the Mekons, it would only make sense that the frontman wouldn't be in a band that played it straight, and his group, the raucous bit of hee-hawing fun called Waco Brothers, plays it every which way but. Langford, who is also a noted visual artist, has had a long relationship with microbrewery Dogfish Head, and this week's show celebrates his art, its beer and its relationship with the Waco Brothers. Langford spoke to the Tribune last week. Here is an edited transcript of that conversation.
