"Black Bananas is Jennifer Herrema, Nadav Eisenman, Brian McKinley and Kurt Midnes s. They work with their machines to play rock that's progressive, experimenting and never less than super-exciting, fuckingly awesome amazing. They do it becuz it 's fun and it sounds rad. With eyes and ears out for the phases and strains of rock past and present, Black Bananas are on the lookout for a sound that mainly exists in their mind, an idea of sound to wrap around the tunes, a cattle-prod sneaking around the backside of your aural cortex. To jolt you into magical thinking. And to make you jump, and make your hair stand up. Yeah, Black Bananas' production pays forward the psychotropic effect with ultimate line blur, but Electric Brick Wall is solidly composed of time-tested elements -- the beat, the groove, licks, builds and bridges, fused together for projection as a new musical shred-spress to the stars."

"It's a banger, baby, from fore to aft! On the A-side, the roiling of downtown terror and multi-channel frequency overspill that flows freely through Black Bananas' sound has been combed up into a glamour 'do, ready to groove through a night on the town. Waves of the late light beam across the water, cool in the evening as we head out to tha club, where the guitars are MIDI, the synths bump 'n' grind the beat and arc melodies high above the crowd's head, and the gasping of the clubbers is always on the one. Jennifer's sweet delivery is an ode to the stone soul joy of being out on the tiles. This track's a blast from an alternate dimension of weirdness, perfectly nailed from top to bottom. Top of the charts man! Black Bananas will have you slippin' on the dance floor with their all-new sound, 'Physical Emotions.'"

"RTX are splitting into Black Bananas! The fruit is ripe and the bread will be fresh. After three albums under the name RTX, Jennifer Herrema and her bunch decided to flip the script and kick open the doors of perception a little bit. See, RTX was not Royal Trux, not a metal band, not a '70s bar band and not a toxic substance; RTX was something, all of those things and none of them and way more, including Black Bananas bubbling in a witchy cauldron of their own herbaceous brew. The title of a song on their RaTX album detailed a bit of the recipe, taking elements often tossed aside or thrown all the way out and combining them into something new and worthwhile?a new strain of the almighty green--to feed and elevate the hungry ones."
