          History

          In 1991, while attending Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Yasuko Onuki started a band called Mizu and, after a short period rehearsing with another guitarist, recruited Ichiro Agata to play guitar in the band.[2] Mizu's original drummer and bass player quit six months after Agata joined, leaving Yasuko to handle the bass and vocal duties until she found bassist Rika.[2] They briefly performed shows around Tokyo without a drummer.

          Sudoh Toshiaki then joined as the new drummer in November 1992, and they changed their name to Melt-Banana.[3]

          In May 1993, Melt-Banana played a show opening for KK Null of Zeni Geva fame, w
