MM3 (CD) Met Met - The music of Brazilian trio Met Met may be rooted in that vast country's rich musical traditions, from choro to samba to MPB, and more particularly Candombl, one of Brazil's indigenous religions, which fuses Christianity with deeper and more ancient west African spirituality. - But if that all sounds like just another ersatz world music melange, think again. Other layers in the Met Met sound come from Afro-beat, punk, psychedelia, heavy metal, Balkan brass and free jazz. - Mix all that with hard-hitting Brazilian and global politics, add a healthy dose of irreverence, and you have an intelligently edgy trio who are dancing past the genre trap and demanding to be heard on their own terms.
