is the exciting first album by Norwegian fusion outfit METI. Following three years of extensive work on a modern jazz/fusion sound, the album captures their explosive and intricate playing on a 8-song saga.
Recorded in legendary studio Athletic Sound with Dag Erik Johansen, the album offers a multidimensional 80’s sound. Heavy riffs, energetic solos and harmonically virtuosic compositions by Vetle Skåli continuing the legacy of their main inspiration, Allan Holdsworth.
“Makes Gong, UK, Bruford, England, prog, 70’s… to point forwards once again. A direction of musicianship that was interrupted but lives again. Wonderful”.
“Warms a AH-heart”
Nils-Olav Johansen, 2026
“METI is 200% jazzfusion”
