The band started in 1998 as a duo formed by Haines and Shaw with the name "Mainstream".〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.spin.com/articles/why-theyre-called-metric )〕 After releasing an EP titled ''Mainstream EP'', they changed the band's name to Metric, after a sound that was programmed by Shaw on his keyboard.〔 In 2001, Winstead and Scott-Key joined them.〔
Their first official studio album, ''Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?'', was released on September 2, 2003. It was followed by ''Live It Out'', released on October 4, 2005.
