Album by Metá Metá

mixing samba and Afro-Brazilian candomblé with jazz and rock. Now they have added north African influences, inspired by visits to Morocco

This is an album that totally hits the spot at times and then misses so tragically you wonder if they have any ability to discriminate. If anybody remembers the old Alternative Tentacles band Tragic Mulatto this is sort of like a less energetic Brazilian version of that. When that energy is focused on discipline the results are rewarding. I figure sometimes band members just got to tell one another when what they’re doing sounds cliche or corny or just isn’t working. To be frank, it’s usually the sax. The lines, some of them at least, just don’t work. Still, overall it’s a winner. I’m sure a lot of Banters would approve.
