哪吒 (Ne Zha) - S/T


Originally my interest in this band (and mavon's thanks mavon) sprung from their ridiculous last.fm profile picture (seen above), but after doubting that they were a real band at all, I not only found their album but found out that they are in fact The Gar, before they changed their name to The Gar. This album is as far as I know their only output before the namechange but if you like The Gar you are going to like this pretty much without a doubt. The production quality is just fine which is a rarity for Chinese bands' early recordings. One of the tracks on here is actually an earlier and slightly rougher version of The Gar's "Circle," one of the highlights of that album. All in all this was a really pleasant surprise for me and goes right up there with the band's later material.
