ROOM 237 & BRUDENELL PRESENT... TUESDAY 17TH JUNE 2008 MELT BANANA (A-ZAP, SKINGRAFT) Japanese noise rockexperiemental band Melt Banana found more success in the U.S. and the U.K. than in their own country, gaining a small but dedicated fan base among American and European punk rock fans. They were one of John Peel’s favourite acts and have been as inspirational as Sonic Youth, Nirvana on todays alternative landscape. They have collaborated with Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys), The Locust, Merzbow and have toured with the crème de la crème of the last two decades of interesting acts. Although their music sounds noticeably different from any sort of traditional punk, it contains some punk elements: shrieking vocals, overdriven guitars, and one-and-a-half-minute songs. Melt Banana's unique style, however, comes as a result of the distinctly piercing vocals of lead singer Yasuko O. As well as the frenzied, effect-charged playing of guitarist Agata Searing, intense, and mind-blowingly fast are perhaps the first adjectives that come to mind when listening to Melt Banana's music. Try to imagine an even more energetic incarnation of the Boredoms. @ BRUDENELL SOCIAL CLUB, Queens Road, Leeds Doors: 7.30pm £9 Adv. Available from Jumbo / Crash / Tribe / Out of Step
