Whether they are named after a poison arrow, first mentioned in the Old Testament, or after a demon from the Jewish Mythology, that kills anyone who sees him on the spot, it's most definitely that the debut album from Israel's Quetev Meriri will have the same effect of spooky dissolve upon its' listeners.

Recorded in one night of multi-instrumental experimental fever, the trio of Quetev Meriri deliver a genuine and a critical mass of traditional-oriental gloom and hazy acid-folk, while paying a homage to radical Jewish philosophers such as Walter Benjamin, Emanuel Levins, Rosa Luxemburg, Jacob Frank and Franz Rosenzweig, out of the pure intention to establish musical monuments for these great free thinkers that still remain absent in the Jewish and Israeli culture.
