BAnanas Symphony is the solo project of Philadelphia's Yohsuke Araki who is otherwise a member of the wonderful psych pop outfit Blackhawks which is somehow also entangled in that certain scene around Dan Svizeny's Cough Cool and Nude Beach. Now until someone finds the time to explain this nuclear fusion of mind-boggling talent and creativity to me in more detail, suffice it to say that BAnanas Symphony's new tunes Dumb Teenage Love and It's Coming Around are both dream pop in the most intriguing way, full of longing and with just the right hint of melancholy, the latter one drenched in reverb making it almost classic shoegaze, while the former has a twisted tropical rhythm that pretends joyfulness while ashamedly hiding the sadness that lies beyond.
