Today Warner Music Japan announced the group s fast-approaching sophomore album
META ATEM has been scrapped and will no longer be released by the label. The album had been scheduled for release on August 11, but that will no longer be the case.
For the unfamiliar, Metafive is the Japanese supergroup that features Cornelius (a.k.a. Keigo Oyamada), as well as Yellow Magic Orchestra legend Yukihiro Takahashi, Towa Tei, Leo Imai and Tomohiko Gondo.
META ATEM was set to follow-up their beloved 2016 album
Meta.
Metafive confirmed the album cancellation on their Instagram, adding that the band will also be axing various IRL events and their METAFM radio program on InterFM897.
