METZ are going on tour to celebrate a decade of their self-titled album. Split between two legs, the Toronto punks will play their 2012 debut METZ — named among Exclaim!'s 50 Best Canadian Albums of the 2010s — in full throughout October and December.
"This album changed our lives. Songs that started out as the soundtrack to beer-soaked Toronto basement gigs somehow ended up taking us to stages all over the world. We are so grateful to everyone who embraced our self-titled album and allowed it to be a part of their life," said the band via Instagram.
Tickets go on sale July 22 at 10 a.m. local time here. The tour opener at Toronto's Opera House on October 13 is the only chance to see the album performed front-to-back in Canada.
