Saw 'em tonight at Dante's in Portland--as always "RRAGG" was the third song they played--I somehow think that's kind of hilarious. (Maybe it's because they also like looking at the crowd right after it to see who's never seen them before, because they're the people who have expressions on their faces like "did they just do that?") They also pulled out a cover of Devo's "Uncontrollable Urge." If there's a guitarist who uses pedals more expressively these days than Agata, I don't know who it would be. And I am very sure there's not a better English-language lyricist whose native language isn't English than Yasuko Onuki.

I only own Cell-Scape so far & fear I may never see them live :-(
I concur, that solo record is worth picking up. Fun and even pretty in parts. Also reminds you just how unfathomably great & out-there his riffage in the group set-up is.
xpost - I like that outro... more ambience than noise tho?

True... but it's a fine line, I suppose.
Teeny Shiny is like Cell-Scape v0.7. Pretty solid, but still not quite the amicable merge of pop and grindcore it should be.

I think they're a little disappointing on album, but the live show is amazing.

They covered Uncontrollable Urge & Neat Neat Neat, which was fun. So glad I went (I had to go on my own, as I suffer from a distinct lack of noisecore loving friends).

On their sixth full-length studio release Melt Banana exercise a hitherto undetected area of their musical musculature: the "rock" region. Summing up an entire album, and one as diverse as Bambi's Dilemma, with such a pedestrian qualifier is risky business, agreed, but it seems to fit like never before. The band, of course, refuses to accommodate any such pigeonholing: "Maybe it is rock, but maybe not. We just make whatever we want. We just follow our own instincts!" The truth is MxBx makes music as they please, relying solely on their own maverick talent to get them where they need to be. Bambi's Dilemma's eighteen tracks careen from extreme, fastblast attacks to more serene moments (usually reserved for nonalbum releases) to the band's revolutionary new, guitar and bassless "Theremin-core".
