You can hear Metric in the sound, but Now, Now (a.k.a. Now, Now Every Children) measures out their own space. On their EP, Neighbors, bouncy keys meet garage-y guitars (especially “Giants”) and pop, indie, introspective vocals. Overall, the EP, which is five songs plus two acoustic versions, feels as if it was culled from a 90’s indie compilation. The songs transport you to new places which is exactly what you want from rock music—as if music made by the blurring images flashing past your window as watch from your seat on the commuter train.
