Melt-Banana -

Not content merely to be the rulers of start-stop noisecore, Tokyo's Melt Banana have demonstrated that they are also the rulers of everything else played in the context of making a racket. Their music is reconfigured, energised, set ablaze ad shot through a sonic particle acccelerator. 'Yasuko's vocals are incisive and penetrating, with more emotional range than a hormonal schizophrenic'.
