(March 2022) Episode 392 is TANG DYNASTY, considered China’s first heavy metal band. While it’s generally not my kind of metal, it is better than I expected, especially the guitarists’ shredding and grooving. I also like how they incorporate Chinese ideas and myths, akin to the traditions of Nordic metal. Each album has its own distinct sound.
Favorite album: Epic
Favorite song: Zebra Crossing
Compared to expectations: ↑
Recommendation: try it, because you’ve probably never heard Chinese metal before
