About 后海大鲨鱼

后海大鲨鱼 (hòuhǎi dàshāyú, in English: Queen Sea Big Shark) was formed in 2005 and almost from the very beginning became one of the most watched bands in the Beijing scene and one of the most admired among the younger bands. They have a very funky but also very hard-rocking sound that in some ways reminds of psychobilly and post-punk. Queen Sea Big Shark combine tight rhythms with raunchy guitars, sometimes more rocky, sometimes with an 80s synth-pop style. Musically among the most sophisticated bands in Beijing, Queen Sea Big Shark are immensely focused in both their song writing and their performances. Their stage act displays a ferocious discipline that consists of Cao Pu (曹璞)'s guitar backed by a rhythm section of bassist Wang Jinghan (王静涵) and drummer Xiao Wu (小武). All of this control anchors the band in a way that throws singer Fu Han (付菡)'s out-of-control gyrations and frantic singing into sharp relief. Fu Han's spectacular stage presence is at the heart of the band's power and makes their live act one of the best in China, and it doesn't seem to matter to their stage show whether the audience consists of hundreds of screaming fans or a few friends. http://d22beijing.com/bands/qsbs.html
