Biography
Formed in London in 1976, Metro is doubly famous for the song "Criminal World", covered and popularized by David Bowie on his Let's Dance album (1983), and for having been home to guitarist Duncan Browne (1947-1993) and singer Peter Godwin, who recorded a first album of the same name with Sean Lyons and studio musicians. The group's first single, "Criminal World", was censored by the BBC for its explicitly sexual content. After the release of the album Metro (1977), Duncan Browne left the band to resume his solo career. The band briefly changed its name to Public Zone, and produced a single entitled "Naive" with drummer Stewart Copeland (later of The Police), who declined the invitation to join permanently. Three new musicians were then hired by Peter Godwin and Sean Lyons for the next two albums, New Love (1979) and Future Imperfect (1980), released before Metro split up.
