"<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">Hailing from the trenches of rural </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Belfast</span><span style="font-family: Arial;">, </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Maine</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> is Afghan Banana Stand, the self proclaimed best band in the universe or the only active band in </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Belfast</span><span style="font-family: Arial;">, Maine...either is perfectly acceptable. Originally forming in November of 2005 - in a practice that consisted of founding member and guitarist Paul Staples playing a cover of "Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit" with session drummer Nick Scott - Afghan Banana Stand has gone on to survive several line-up changes, overdoses, and threats. Known for the masterful fusing of Punk, Rock and Ska (minus the horns) elements they have won the heart of...dozens...with a fun and energetic musical experience and electice, sometimes eccentric, live show always showcasing their unique sense of humor. On </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">May 11, 2007</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> they professionally recorded their third EP (the first <em>official</em> release however), <em>Brazilian Bikini Tan</em>, at RockME Studios in Brewer, ME with the assistance of Cory Deshane from the New England School of Communications. The latest EP features 6 songs which generally focuses on their Punk-ish roots (Bloody Saturday Night and Patterson Hill), their Quasi-Ska leanings (Lulu and Nuke the Whales) and their Pseudo-Hard Rock and keen yet politically incorrect edge (Salvia and Polygamy Jimmy). In its present incarnation, the band has been together for a little over a year, but is of course subject to change.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Arial;">Sadly, as of August 20th, 2007 Afghan Banana Stand has gone on an indefinite hiatus to to both creative and educational differences/challenges. <br />
