been hanging out to hear some reverb-laden, 80s-tinged, noise pop from China? well funnily enough i just stumbled upon this awesome track today over at Altered Zones, Castle from Beijing-based noise pop duo Dear Eloise {Sun Xia & Yang Haison from P.K. 14} off their debut album "The Words That Were Burnt" (2010).
Castle is an ecstatic Jesus & Mary Chain-esque, reverb-worshiping, raw, feedback-overloaded track, Sun's fervent vocals float on top of a tumultuous ocean of epic fuzzed-out guitar drone et squealing feedback produced by Yang. embrace the impressive wall-of-noise produced by this kick-ass husband et wife duo!
it seems very likely that Dear Eloise are named after the classic Hollies track.
a new album "Beauty In Strangers" is slated for release this year from Maybe Mars, along with two 7"s, one for Castle et the other from the forthcoming album Song For Her on Genjing Records.
MP3: Castle
et here's a hazy, mellow, reflective track off the album
