Source-derived summary

Antlered Man is a four-piece alternative rock group from London, England. The band members had previously performed as Metro Riots before changing their band name and style in 2009.

History

Metro Riots

Metro Riots formed in 2003 and began performing in small venues.

The band released an EP in 2004, titled And So...the Tyrants were Loose. In 2006, their single "When You're Gone", was released under the label Eleven78 Records. "When You're Gone" earned Single of the week in The Sun newspaper and was played on Xfm Radio London 104.9fm on the John Kennedy Show. Metro Riots then toured the UK twice with Dirty Pretty Things, followed by a European tour with Juliette Lewis and the Licks. They returned to England for a solo tour, and recorded an album, Night Time Angel Candy at Rockfields Studios with producer Pedro Ferreira.

Metro Riots' songs "Modern Romance" and "Hazchem Remedy" were featured in the 2006 video game Urban Chaos: Riot Response for Xbox and PlayStation 2. "Thee Small Faces" was featured in the playlist for the video game 'Need For Speed: Carbon' (2006).

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2009, 2003, 2004, 2006—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 2003. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Antlered, musical and group.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Antlered Man” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Antlered, musical and group provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6824690. VIAF identifies the subject as 2956148814297445330001. None of the 4 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2009, 2003, 2004 and 2006.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
