Alpine Decline
After landing on the distant outskirts of Beijing, Alpine Decline (already with 3 albums under their belts) debuted on the Chinese scene with a bang, recording Night of the Long Knives with Yang Haisong of the seminal Chinese underground band P.K. 14. Jonathan Zeitlin and Pauline Mu always write songs with an honesty and freedom that helps ground the spider web of noise that characterizes their songs. Their music draws on shoegaze bliss, pure noise and straight-up rock n’ roll.

Supports:
Duck Fight Goose
Shanghai band Duck Fight Goose has made a name for itself as one of China’s leading experimental bands. The quartet – which is made up of veterans from respected underground groups like Lava | Ox | Sea, Muscle Snog, Boojii, and Hard Queen – delved into electronic math rock in their widely praised first EP Flow, which combined angular experimentalism with a warm, frenetic psychedelia. The album was released on frontman Han Han’s label Miniless, and gained a wide following thanks to several countrywide tours. Duck Fight Goose took a stylistic turn with the 2011 release of ‘Sports’ on Beijing-based indie label Maybe Mars. The band has now broken into the international scene, striking out to the US for shows in LA and appearances at SXSW.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes draw on an audio concoction of shoegaze, lo-fi and harsh noise that will leave you wondering where the other two band members are. The Shanghai duo is formed of Xiaozhong from Pairs and Cee.Q from Marquee VII.

特别嘉宾:
鸭打鹅乐队
鸭打鹅是中国最前卫的摇滚乐队之一，在组队之前，乐队的成员分别来自于Lava | Ox | Sea，Muscle Snog，Boojii以及Hard Queen等极受尊重的地下乐队。在乐队第一张广受好评的EP里，他们尝试起了Math Rock的风格，而到了之后在乐队主唱韩涵的弥勒厂牌下发表的首张专辑里，Duck Fight Goose更是把愤怒的实验主义和温暖癫狂的迷幻曲风结合到了一起。在有了几次出国演出的经历后，乐队更是在2011年于兵马司旗下发表的专辑《Sports》里，又来了一次风格上的大转折。目前，Duck Fight Goose已经吸引了许多来自世界范围内的关注，并在洛杉矶和SXSW进行了演出。

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes
来自Pairs乐队的小中和Marqueee Vll的Cee.Q共同在上海组建了Tom Cruise和Katie Holmes乐队。尽管只是个两人组，但他们的音乐却结合了Shoegaze，Lo-Fi，和噪音等种种元素，其音乐元素的丰满程度，常常会令乐迷问自己，这乐队究竟是不是只有两个人？
