Information

Cibo Matto was a New York City-based band formed by Hatori Miho and Honda Yuka in the 1990s. Their musical style contained elements of hip-hop, rock, and latin music. Occationally, hints of their Japanese heritage would slip in. Cibo Matto is an Italian phrase that translates to "crazy food."

After working together in the noise rock band Leitoh Lychee, Hatori and Honda formed Cibo Matto around 1994. While recording tracks for their first album, Viva! La Woman, they collaborated with the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion's Russell Simins and others, on a side project called Butter 08. Viva! La Woman was released in 1996.

They later added band members Sean Lennon on guitar, and Timo Ellis on drums to record Stereo★Type A. While Viva! La Woman had a stronger hip-hop element, the new album contained more rock and latin inflected songs. Stereo★Type A, released in 1999, would be their last studio album.

The group continued to play live concerts until disbanding near the end of 2001. Honda went on to release solo albums, while Hatori worked with the Gorillaz.
