Norwegian Progressive Rock project Meer has unveiled the official music video for the track “Golden Circle” taken from upcoming new album “Wheels Within Wheels” due out on August 23, 2024 via Karisma Records. Watch the video through the YouTube player below:
“Fronted by the captivating brother and sister duo Knut and Johanne Nesdal, MEER returns with their highly anticipated third album, “Wheels Within Wheels.” This new release is a masterclass in blending symphonic prog and intelligent pop, showcasing the band’s exceptional musicianship, intricate vocal harmonies, and grandiose melodies.
Following the critical success of their sophomore album, “Playing House,” released three years ago, MEER’s latest effort expands their artistic horizons. While “Playing House” explored the intricacies of personal relationships, “Wheels Within Wheels” offers a broader perspective, delving into the complex interplay between individuals and the wider world. The band captures the electrifying energy of their live performances, creating songs that are both expansive and deeply personal, all while maintaining their distinctive sound.
