Nights Out

'Nights Out' is the second album by British electronic act Metronomy, released on the 8th of September, 2008 through Because Music.

The starting point for the album was, according to lead singer Joseph Mount, "a half-arsed concept album about going out and having a crap time."

Joseph Mount wrote and recorded most of the album by himself but Gabriel Stebbing and Oscar Cash "play bits on a couple of tracks on the album and it’s kind of become….Metronomy used to be a him and now it’s definitely a they - which takes the heat off me a bit as well".

The artwork for the album was created by airbrush artist Philip Castle.

The commercial pressing of the album has a printing error on the cover; instead of reading Nights Out, it just says Nights. The promotional version is unaffected. It is unknown whether this will be rectified in the next pressing of the album.

The album was placed at No. 6 by NME in their best albums of 2008 list.
