The title references Yoshitsune, legendary Japanese warrior-hero - though "Metamo" suggests metamorphosis, transformation. Yoshitsune's story involves disguise, flight, and tragic loyalty - themes resonating with Akita's own constant transformations. Akita's engagement with Japanese history and mythology runs throughout his work, counterbalancing Western avant-garde influences often emphasized in critical discussions.
The metamorphosis theme connects to Merzbow's endless mutations, each album transforming the project into something new while maintaining essential identity.
