Description
Metá Metá's sophomore album and debut for Mais Um Discos MetaL MetaL launches itself from the ancient chants of the orixás into a dirty brew of psychedelic samba, distorted jazz and Afro-punk. The band is formed of a trio of Sao Paulo's most sought after musicians - Vocalist Juçara Marçal, saxophonist Thiago França and guitarist Kiko Dinucci and features Afrobeat legend Tony Allen. Followers of the Afro-Brazilian religion Candomblé, Marçal, França and Dinucci mix these spiritual and rhythmic foundations with influences ranging from Afrobeat to Afrosambas, punk rock to be-bop to create chaotic, effervescent music that explodes with the rage of The Stooges and Sonic Youth, the spirituality of John Coltrane and Sun Ra and the wild, avant-garde instrumentation of contemporary experimental jazz outfits such as Melt Yourself Down and Polar Bear. "The first really serious contender for album of the year" Independent on Sunday "Metá Metá are a raucous trio intent on shattering images of Brazilian music" The Wire "An extraordinary style the music echoes everything from punk rock to freeform jazz and samba" The Guardian
