4.0 excellent | japanoise | June 20th 07 | This is like two albums in one. Tracks 1-10 are short, punk/experimental/noisy songs but they are truly "songs" with a structure buried underneath the frenetic guitars and runaway rhythm section. Tracks 11-17 are experimental, noisy blasts lacking of structure. The album closer is unlike anything that has come before, a slower number that sounds like it was added after the band realized that the preceding 17 tracks ran only about 27 minutes.

3.5 great | Nine | January 29th 19 | Quite a fast-paced and fun grind/punk album with the experimentation definitely showing in the second half of the record. Most of which were misses, but it was dumb fun nonetheless. The former half though has a handful of solid tracks, however, with my favorites being the opener "Spider Snipe" and "Plasma Gate Quest".

3.5 great | BRAman22 | April 9th 15 | Bambi's Dilemma sees Melt-Banana fusing quick Japanese punk with random sounds. Its fairly entertaining, though nothing too spectacular.

4.0 excellent | Jared Floryan | December 22nd 14 | Care to bash your head against an infested flagpole while your insane girlfriend skips around minding her own business? Bambi's Dilemma is this in a nutshell plus a bit more, depending on how others may see the album. Yasuko Onuki's vocals are sickeningly cute as usual, though unique and a bit abnormal enough to turn certain people off, while Ichirou Agata's riffs make out with the noisy, punk-like structure as intended.

4.5 superb | DanielNightLewis | April 4th 13 | Great fun all round, my only gripe is that the noise-rock/punk element and pure noise element aren't a little better integrated. Regardless, this album puts a smile on my face every time I hear it.

0.0 | DeathByAstonishment | August 19th 12 | I don't know what it is with Japan. If you thought Japanese porn was weird, wait until you hear this noise-punk-gone-grindcore outfit from Tokyo. With a vocalist that sounds like a gradeschooler on crack and a backing section that loves noise as much as melody, this is true 21st century punk.
