Metric have confirmed details of their forthcoming fifth studio album.

The Canadian band will follow-up the success of 2009's Fantasies with new album Synthetica on June 11.

Writing on ilovemetric.com, frontwoman Emily Haines has said of the new album " SYNTHETICA is about insomnia, fucking up, fashion, all the devices and gadgets attached to our brains, getting wasted, watching people die in other countries, watching people die in your own country, dancing your ass off, questioning the cops, poetic justice, standing up for yourself, sex, the apocalypse, doing some stupid shit and totally regretting it but then telling everyone it made you stronger, leaving town as a solution to unsolvable problems, owning your actions and owning your time."
