Salut,
On vient de m'envoyer une liste de groupes de rock et de hard-rock chinois (Taiwan, Chine, Corée, etc...)
Je vous la poste, pensant que ça peut intéresser quelques-un de découvrir de nouvelles choses.
Le nom du groupe est affiché en chinois. [b] D'ailleurs, j'espère que l'affichage des caractères spéciaux marchera chez vous... Il suffit de faire un copier-coller dans Google, et vous aurez le site du groupe (souvent avec mp3).
No. 1 Beijing rocker, the grandfather of Chinese rock: Cui Jian 崔建. Still going strong, and very good. Some CDs are Music for a new long march 新长征路上的摇滚, Power of the powerless 无能的力量 (I might have gotten the Chinese slightly wrong).
Some other classic bands, mostly from the 90s:
No. 43 Baojia Street 鲍家界43号, I think they’re extremely good.
Tang Dynasty 唐朝, metal. Band doesn’t exist anymore. One of the members was an ABC called Kaiser Kuo, he can be found on the net.
Black Panther 黑豹, had some success in the West
Confucius said 子曰
Cobra 眼镜蛇, all women
Zero 零点, sounds like Aerosmith
Some people:
Xu Wei 许巍
Zheng Jun 郑钧, made a Chinese version of Coldplay’s Yellow, he sounds pretty much like that most of the time.
Dou Wei 窦维, used to be in Black Panther. Nowadays he makes radically different music, not at all rock.
Wang Lei 王磊, extremely good.
More recent:
Overload 超载
Cold Blooded Animal 冷血动物
Ouch 哎哟, ska-punk, good. Only one CD out as far as I know.
Second Hand Roses 二手玫瑰, very alternative, and they have a singer in drag.
Frogs 青蛙
Thin Man 瘦人
Hang on the Box 挂在盒子上, girl band making Chinglish punk. Try it out if you can find it, it’s interesting to say the least, although not necessarily good music.
Hopscotch 跳房 (not sure of the Chinese), is not really rock actually, but it is alternative. Beijing band that sings in English.
Taiwanese (yes apparently there is such a thing as Taiwanese rock):
Relax One 轻松玩, pop-rock. One CD out, 我要轻松玩.
Show An (or any other spelling) 小安, awesome and funny.
The Chairman 董事长, their music sounds dark, but live they’re really funny.
Chasing Sparrow, don't know there Chinese name
Six Plus 六甲, about the ‘hardest’ music you can find in a normal store in Taiwan, they have some good songs.
Wu Bai 伍佰 sometimes sings things that might count as rock.
A-Mei 张惠妹 dito.
