Vellu Posted March 7, 2004 at 03:45 PM Report Posted March 7, 2004 at 03:45 PM My favorite yaogun bands and artists include Cui Jian, Zi Yue, Baojia Street no. 43, Tang Dynasty .. well there are many. I would pretty much recommend all the albums released from the ones mentioned oh well, here's a short list: Cui Jian - Rock'n'roll on a new long march / Nothing to my name Cui Jian - Balls under the red flag Tang Dynasty -Tang Dynasty Tang Dynasty - Epic Zi Yue - Chapter One to mention a few But i think it depends on what kind of rock music you like.. www.yesasia.com is one place to find chinese rock, and as i recall niubi here has a nice list of places where to find them, just check http://www.niubi.com/shop/index.html Quote
Vellu Posted March 7, 2004 at 03:53 PM Report Posted March 7, 2004 at 03:53 PM whoops, sorry, correction.. i mean, are you in china? then i believe it's a totally different thing with the cd purchasing of course... my mistake :? Quote

BeijingSlacker Posted June 11, 2004 at 12:26 AM Report Posted June 11, 2004 at 12:26 AM Cuijian rocks. definitely my favorite. after 500 years, none of those Hongkong pop puppets will be remembered, but Cuijian's music will be passed on forever. One of his songs in the latest album-- the Power of the Powerless 时代的晚上 没有新的语言 也没有新的方式 没有新的力量能够表达新的感情 不是什么痛苦 也不是天生爱较劲 不过是积压已久的一些本能的反应 情况太复杂了 现实太残酷了 谁知道忍受的极限到了会是什么样的结果 请摸着我的手吧 我孤独的姑娘 检查一下我的心理的病是否和你的一样 不是谈论政治 可还是有点慌张 可能是因为过去的精神压力如今还没得到释放 别看我在微笑 也别觉得我轻松 我回家单独严肃时才会真的感到忧伤 我的心在疼痛 象童年的委屈 却不是那么简单也不是那么容易 请摸着我的手吧 我温柔的姑娘 是不是我越软弱越象你的情人儿 噢---- 请看着我的眼睛 你不要改变方向 不要因为我太激动而要开始感到紧张 把那只手也给我 把它放在那我的心上 感觉一下我的心跳是否是否还有力量 你的小手冰凉 象你的眼神一样 我感到你身上也有力量却没有使出的地方 请摸着我的手吧 我坚强的姑娘 也许你比我更敏感更有话要讲 你会相信我吗 你会依靠我吗 你是否能够控制得住我如果我疯了 你无所事事吗 你需要震撼吗 可是我们生活的这辈子有太多的事还不能干呐 行为太缓慢了 意识太落后了 眼前我们能够做的事只是肉体上需要的 请摸着我的手吧 我美丽的姑娘 让我安慰你度过这时代的晚上 噢---- Quote
Yang Rui Posted June 14, 2004 at 02:31 PM Report Posted June 14, 2004 at 02:31 PM There's a guy called Wang Feng 王锋 (or 峰？）who most of my Chinese friends have never heard of. His album 爱是一颗幸福的子弹 （ai shi yi ke xingfude zidan) is excellent, but some people say he's sold out and gone too poppy recently. For more alternative stuff you could try Beng 泵 Quote
