1LP - ink and paint vinyl 

You settle into the worn seat of a subway car barely holding together, graffiti scrawled across it's walls beneath flickering ads for bionic enhancements and synthetic upgrades. A mechanical voice crackles through the loudspeaker: "The next stop is... your tiny, stupid little worthless life."

This is Metro-a dark, gritty ride through rebellion, duality, and self-discovery... and The Blue Stones' boldest album yet.

The Blue Stones-vocalist and guitarist Tarek Jafar and drummer Justin Tessier-formed during their university days and inspired by the freedom of creating without boundaries, grew from playing small-town bars to headlining iconic venues like The Troubadour in Los Angeles, Electric Ballroom in London, and The Danforth Music Hall in Toronto.

Along the way, they've racked up over 300 million streams, three JUNO nominations, and radio hits like Shakin' Off the Rust, which topped Rock charts in Canada and hit #5 on U.S. Mainstream Rock. METRO - the band's fourth full-length LP - takes that ethos even further.

The album follows a protagonist navigating a dystopian subway, confronting a personified version of their darker side-a manifestation of their buried need for authenticity.

"The subway is a metaphor for the conflict we all face," says Tarek. "It's about balancing societal expectations with your own self-serving desires." The loudspeaker's voice, eerie and detached, becomes the protagonist's inner critic, a manifestation of societal pressure that feels alien yet inescapable.
