Fetch is the seventh album by Japanese noise rock band Melt-Banana. It was released on October 1, 2013, on CD and digitally. It was released on LP on November 5, 2013. It is the band's first album of new material in six years, since Bambi's Dilemma (2007). The recording sessions for the album had to be postponed due to the Tohoku earthquake and the aftermath of the subsequent meltdown at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.

Melt-Banana have been performing live as a duo since mid-2012.[4] The album was also recorded as a duo, with vocalist Yasuko Onuki and guitarist Ichirou Agata opting to use synthesized backing music.[1]
