About Me


Iuengliss (pronounced "i-wen-gliss") is the moniker of Denver, CO artist and musician Tom Metz. It is a mixture of intricate experimental dance beats, heart healthy melodies, and ethereal vocals. Influenced by Aphex Twin, Coldplay, Autechre, Sigur Ros and many others, Iuengliss strives to fill the body and soul with warmth, passion, and complex explosionary vibrations!
Press Quotes:
"The feeling of rising on a sunny day in early spring, after the snows have subsided and the burning heat of the summer is still weeks away... Captivates the imagination while simultaneously refreshing the mind and rejuvenating the spirit with its meticulously crafted, gently cascading rhythms... Effectively recalls Sigur Rós’s most beautiful moments... Overall, Iuengliss makes a bold, affectionately convincing case that it’s a great time to be alive." - Westword
"Iuengliss' Tom Metz crafts a melodic concoction of ambience, sighing vocals, and epic meloncholy." - The Onion
"The resonant, dulcet tones of Iuengliss are calming to the soul" - Westword
