"Hot Banana Wave" was written and first performed while the band were holidaying in Hawaii. It's the best song ever written about an ice-cream sundae surfing the 15 foot-ers. It's even more incredible when you discover the band are a bunch of chaps from Manchester who listen to endless Captain Beefheart, Monks, The Fall, Can, Part Chimp, and, judging by the lo-fi rock'n'roll of "Hot Banana Wave", plenty of Swell Maps too.
