Excerpts From RichardThinks Review
Morning Banana Diet have honing and giddily crafting what can best be called “progressive punk” for those who dare enter their airspace.
It’s weird, out of the box, off putting even for those non-acclimated, but there is so much in store for the non-casual listener.
The selling point is how diverse the MBD sound is.
There’s a startling amount of takes on the word “emotion” present, equal parts startling and impressive at how controlled it all feels.
There are just so many moments when it feels like everything comes together to make a song escalate from just another weird experiment to something rather surreal. This whole record just unfurls and unfolds at the right pace to create something very very unreal.
Welcome a group of musicians who know how to make something both eclectic and powerful.

Glory In Sound Review
Morning Banana diet is an ambient post-hardcore band from Waneysboro, Pennsylvania. This is a different kind of album, from the first song to the last I found new and interesting songwriting, guitar fills, harsh guttural vocals blended masterfully together to create something really impressive. This is an album that gives the feeling of being right there with the band, a good live sound isn’t easy to pull off, but this five piece has it down perfectly. There’s a lot of ambience mixed in with clear, strong messages.
There’s something very comforting about the way a band screams out about how we are nothing, and our lives don’t matter. Not because I necessarily feel that way, but that someone else out there is feeling the same way that I am. That it’s not out of place or isolating to have those thoughts or ideas. The second track, Lemons, is the one I’m talking about, it’s such an amazing song. It doesn’t end lost in that late night headspace that leaves us lost, floating adrift in the oceans of our minds. The song ends with hope, and I found that really inspiring. Taking the things that make us feel small and using them to make us feel unstoppable. Morning Banana Diet isn’t like any other band I’ve ever heard, they are masterful storytellers as well as songwriters.
The musicians, all of the musicians in this band are so talented. Every musician ha a clear and solid line, the bass and drums keep the beat going while the guitars are busy shredding hard almost constantly throughout. It’s like an entirely new genre of music, something that can’t really be explained exactly. It can only be heard to be fully understood. I urge anyone looking for something new, fun, unique, and groundbreaking to check these guys out.
Seriously. Do it right now.
