Imperial China is an experimental punk rock trio from Washington, DC, featuring Matt Johnson, Brian Porter, and Patrick Gough. Gough was in the 1990s band Pitchblende, which recorded for Cargo, Matador, Jade Tree, and Simple Machines. Imperial China began in January 2007 and self-released their debut four-song EP, ” Methods: ” in April 2008.
The band followed up with a nine-song album in February 2010 called ” Phosphenes ” a split release on DC labels Sockets and Ruffian. The group is playing out and about as much as possible and writing new songs in 2010, and hopes to go back into the studio to record a new album in early 2011.
~~~~~~~~~ ( This one is on my laptop for months and I really don’t know why I never thought of sticking them up here earlier. Math-rock / Math-core sound that goes for fans of ” Shellac ” ~ ” Liars ” and the likes.
I’ ve read some people says this might take more than just one listen to digest… I seriously doubt that. Heard it once and fell in love with the sound on the spot.
GET BOTH TITLES. Unbelievable guitars and bass. Believe me you really don’t want to miss [ Imperial China ]. [ MySpace ] | [ Last.Fm ] ). ~~~~~~~~
