Melt Banana - Bambi's Dilemma and Cell-Scape














Artist: Melt Banana
Genre: Japanese Noise Punk
Album: Cell-Scape and Bambi's Dilemma

Melt Banana is an extremely good punk bad from Japan. As a band, the only problem I have with them is the fact that they have a female vocalist. Who I actually enjoy, so I have very little issue with the band. Yasuko is of course, a small asian woman, so her 'barked' vocals actually sound... kinda yipped. Agata the guitarist, is amazing. Not a traditional shredder, but he has many pedal to produce noises you'd never even thought could come from a guitar. -Note: Like a White Bat in a box, Dead on the Cell-Scape album- The bass provides quite the structure for the songs, actually as otherwise it would be noise wank gibberish. The drums are actually quite solid, even though they can't keep a steady drummer. Great band, fantastic live shows.

Note: Yasuko, the singer, was so intense when I saw them, that her nose actually began to bleed. And she kept going!

Rating: Cell-Scape: 4/5
Rating: Bambi's Dilemma: 4/5
