PHOTOS: Peter, Bjorn And John At Metro

Peter, Bjorn And John's latest is an eerie opus and anyone expecting an hour of "Young Folks" styled vibes at The Metro last Thursday was in for a disappointment. Instead the trio delivered a masterful set of eerie ambiance and undeniable power. The group turned The Metro into a spooky subterranean cove, into an echo chamber, into a World Beat dance club turned on its head, and into a jubilant room practicing profanity laced sing-alongs. These Swedes proved that they've amassed a formidable amount of available musical weapons in their arsenal over the last decade they've been together, and they use each one masterfully and with great precision.
