Picastro - Metal Cares

‘Metal Cares’ is the second album from the Toronto band Picastro. Their debut album ‘Red Your Blues’ was awarded ‘album of the week’ in the Sunday Times and was also well received in various other publications including Q, The Wire, The Morning Star, Time Out New York and AMG for its mesmeric avant rock soundscapes featuring cello, guitar and the submerged, melancholic vocals of front woman Liz Hysen. The band have played shows with Godspeed, Mick Turner (Dirty Three), Smog, Elliot Smith, Cat Power, Angels of Light, Herman Düne, Cerberus Shoal and Thee More Shallows. Metal Cares encompasses a wide range of musical elements including pop, Russian folk songs, avant-rock, Greek Rembetika and dynamic, occasionally dissonant string arrangements.
