	Melt-Banana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Essentially, it could be argued that Melt Banana's output, (with special attention bought to there more recent songs) are more reminicent of quirkier indie pop bands, with definite melodies hiding beneath the distortion, effects and sheer speed.
		Yasuko even sings, as opposed to barks parts of one of the tracks called 'If it is the Deep Sea, I can See You There' on their most recent studio album 'Cell Scape'.
		The band describes their recent music (especially Teeny Shiny and Cell-Scape) as pop, but it is far from it, except more accessible, perhaps.

	BBC - Experimental Review - Melt Banana/The Locust, Split 7"
		Tokyo's Melt Banana have been responsible for some of the most complex punk rock ever made, albeit with samplers and an intelligence that far outshines ninety-nine percent of most other bands out there.
		not only do all these bands, and melt banana, push the bounds of creativity and the direction of aggression, but it is pulled off with the utt most precision.
		Those guys morph man! I like them but when I saw Melt Banana though I thought they were a little tame though (saying thanks too much) when I saw locust they almost the venue almost stopped them from playing.

	Melt Banana with Mr. Bungle concert review
		Melt Banana are from Tokyo, Japan, and this was their first time in Washington DC, performing at the Black Cat.
		It's also always surprising to me that groups like Melt Banana, coming from a country with strict values and disciplines, could unleash such a wall of what has now come to be known as Japanoise.
		You could hardly believe that the voice that made this announcement, Melt Banana's female lead vocalist, could screech in a way that would put Kat Bjelland (of Babes in Toyland) to shame.

	Melt Banana (Dorfdisco Berlin)
		Melt Banana is intent on transcending the old cliché of the 15-minute wham-bam-thank- you-ma’am punk show.
		In fact, this mad merry-go-round is a fitting metaphor for Melt Banana’s live performance.
		From the start, they attacked the crowd with a ferocious intensity, and were tighter than any band I’ve seen in a long time, which is no wonder considering their frantic touring schedule.

		Compared to every kind of animal on every kind of drug imaginable, Melt-Banana and their weird blend of mystical awareness, hysterical screech, and moderately robotic attention to detail are magnets for believers in ampheto-core, avant garde appreciators, and no wave loyalists.
		An album from the morning hours of the Melt-Banana history, the second release on Melt-Banana's label was originally released in 1994 on cassette by Scottish label Chocolate Monk.

	Synthesis : Music : Melt Banana : Melt Banana : No Wave Punk Rock.
		The music of Melt Banana is often labeled as punk rock, and that is true in as far as Melt Banana’s music is often blindingly fast, heavy and very chaotic.
		And although Melt Banana is still a noise rock band, aspects of Charlie have the band a bit settled down, finding coherent rhythms and solid melodies while still exploring the aurally chaotic side of rock music.
		Any one of the three Melt Banana’s records will blow your mind, but if you’re one of those people who needs music to be more about passive listening and less about experiencing, then forget the Melt Banana records—go see a Melt Banana show.

	Melt Banana : Cell-Scape - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Any band that has been around as long as Melt Banana and possesses such a unique sound needs to mature in some manner lest they risk the boredom of repetition in the eyes of fans, and the manner in which chirping lead squeaker Yasuko O. and company has couldn't be more satisfying.
		From the grinding opening of "Shield for Your Eyes, A Beast in the Well�" on, this is undoubtedly the Melt Banana that listeners have marveled at for nearly a decade.
		The only difference between their older material and Cell-Scape is that with their latest effort the band has mastered the art of slowly building the intensity of a song before unleashing a barely-contained rage that has come to define their unmistakable sound.

	Mirror : Music - Melt Banana
		With their erratic, high-octane blasts of bass and drums courtesy Rika Mmm’ and Oshima, twisted-to-fuck noise manipulations of guitarist Agata, and the chihuahua-on-crystal-meth vocalisms of female lead screamer Yasuko, Melt Banana is often lumped into the punk rock category.
		The result is a funky-punk, fastcore assault on the synapses, layered with lo-fi special effects ranging from turntable buggery to synth sounds and samples, all thrown into the million-RPM Melt Banana musical blender.
		Infamous for their insanely tight, high-energy shows, Melt Banana’s last album Teeny Shiny saw a break from their classic raw recorded sound.

	Melt-Banana: Cell-Scape: Pitchfork Review
		However, Yasuko O's voice is still way up in the stratosphere, Agata's guitar is still running laps around Eddie Van Halen's worst nightmares, and Melt Banana, for better or for worse, occupy the same place in the hearts of indie and experimental listeners everywhere as they have throughout their existence.
		Additionally, it should be obvious that Melt Banana possess the best song titles in the business, and along with them, some of the coolest, sprawling poetic lyrics.
		I've hoped for a while that Melt Banana would drop their masterpiece, their grand statement to consolidate their power into a tightly wound critical mass.

	BLABBERMOUTH.NET - FANTOMAS, MELT BANANA To Hit The Road Later In The Month
		For those of you who aren't familiar with Melt Banana, they are a female-fronted Japanese band who kick-ass.
		I wouldn't call them metal, and I was skeptical at first when I went, but they kicked my ass, and usually it takes some brutal-ass metal to impress me. Their bass player is also a chick, and the guitar player wears a mask over his mouth cuz he's got some really bad disease.

		I first checked out Melt Banana from one of the links on Panic DHH's site, listened to them, and subscribed to their newsletter and I'd read that they were coming to Korea.

		I might even go to both the Saturday and Sunday gigs, if I'm crazy enough.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Melt Banana/Daemien Frost: Split
		The Melt Banana side, which features "Grave in the Hole (Pitfall Fits a Bit)" and "Capital 1060 Hospital", is a looping mish-mash of gnarled guitar, obtrusive screaming and spooky found sounds.
		This little slab of evil canary yellow vinyl sees Japanese noise masochists Melt Banana trading Pro-Tools enhanced blows with relative noisecore newcomer Daemien Frost.
		Each side of this platter is something resembling an extended cut-and-paste remix, with each separate track segueing directly into the next.
