Might be nostalgia to be fair. The EP was released in April 2010. Remember it well, reminds me of warmer, sunnier weather cos I was hammering that track at the time.
The first bit is dreamy and pleasant and is the sort of thing I'd listen to while relaxing in the garden on a summer's afternoon drinking cider. The second bit is the sort of stuff I'd listen to on holiday on a night out What tracks do you think sound like summer m8? |

I feel weird about this band. I love, love, love their singer. She's just so off-the-wall and schizo sounding, while being fun personiphied. Musically though, it's hard to connect with so much dissonance. But the dissonance is fun! So much fun. I love Melt Banana at times, while at others I'm doing the listening equivalent of staring at them in amused consternation, but at no point am I disliking them. I feel like they're what pop music would sound like if the only people legally allowed to make music were avant garde nutbags. I sense myself slowly coming to like them more and more though, with the newer, less abrasive stuff being my quasi-gateway to the band -- I say "quasi" because Charlie is still pretty rad, if a bit unlistenable.
Regardless, I feel this band embodies that cracked out sense of alien fun that's become the international face of Japanese pop culture far more effectively than all the shallow-but-fun kookiness of self-consciously weird J-Pop stars. God I love Japan.
