Metric have shared Time Is a Bomb from their upcoming 10th album.

The song delivers infectious rhythms with bold lyrics about living in the moment. Singer Emily Haines explained: "Say what you want about the wellness boom, I think it’s a natural response to the unrelenting awareness we have of our mortality. The powerless feeling of wanting to hold on and make time stop while simultaneously doing everything you can to max out your fleeting vitality - this song expresses that inner tension.

"I love my life and I’m truly amazed that I made it to my happily ever after, but I don't want to spend the time I have left obsessing over personal consequences, being boring and hiding from fun. I don’t expect to be jumping off speaker stacks or crowd surfing like I used to, but it’s still too soon to say never."

It follows the previously released lead single Victim Of Luck in previewing 'Romanticize The Dive', due out on April 24 via Thirty Tigers.

The Toronto indie-rock four-piece will support the album with the All The Feelings Tour, a co-headline North American trek with Broken Social Scene and Stars. It kicks off on June 8 in Austin, Texas and wraps up on August 7 with a hometown show at Toronto's RBC Amphitheatre. Tickets are on sale now.
