2.

extraordinary speedcore band from Japan popularised in the UK by the late great John Peel. Features Agata on guitar (and surgical mask), who uses a dozen pedals in order to produce his unique sound; the fairly spunktastic Yasuko on yelping vocals; the mightily arousing diminutive Rika on throbbing bass; and a succession of drummers. Exhilarating stuff, to be sure.

"I say, I wouldn't mind a meat sandwich with these melt-banana (sic) girls!"
