Last week, Toronto noisemakers METZ had their single "The Swimmer" remixed by Cody Votolato and now it's been given another revamp, courtesy of Bird Peterson.
 
The Austin-based trap producer told Consequence of Sound (where the track premiered): "I love this band and this record. And when we met, I asked if I could go nuts on some of their tunes. And then I did. So many nuts involved. I just wanted to be loud and loud and nuts and loud."
 
Peterson slows things down a bit on his interpretation, but what he dials back in tempo, he more than makes up for with added percussion, taking the noise levels to a new high.
 
The album artwork declares that "METZ plus Bird Peterson is a great time" — you can brace for the onslaught of aggressive sound and hit play below to decide for yourself.
