Chinese Football
Chinese Football is a four-piece post-rock band based in Wuhan, China. It was formed in 2011 when vocalist Xu Bo met guitarist Wang Bo. The band’s lineup solidified when bassist Li Lixin joined in. Jia Yifei will be the drummer in their upcoming live show in Shenzhen. Chinese Football tries to keep the original tension of punk music while operating with a DIY attitude. Citing late-1990s emo pioneers like Jimmy Eat World, Get Up Kids and American Football as inspiration, Chinese Football specializes in a potent wistful guitar-bass-driven indie rock sound. Mixing catching guitar riffs with lyrics, Chinese Football is devoted to expressing the fantasy of youth and their frustration. After releasing two EPs and one full-length album and touring Japan, Chinese Football has been considered one of the most important emo rock bands in Asia.
