Made In China Vice Debut Album Release Tour 2011

Made In China Vice Debut Album Release Tour 2011

Fri Sep 23rd, 2011


,
Doors open: 8:30 pm
Entry: R18
Cover charge: $10

As anyone who has experienced Made in China's explosive live shows can attest, this is a band worth paying attention to. They've been in the lab brewing something fearsome - an album which captures the signature raw power, technical skill and intensity of their performances.

The Dunedin band's first full-length release, Vice, showcases their heavy, layered and innovative rock sound. Chunky riffs and stomping rhythms combine with psychedelic elements to take the listener on a sonic tour, which references rock, blues, grunge and doom inspired influences.

The Vice Album Release Tour kicks off on 23 September 2011, and follows Made in China's three previous national tours promoting their E.P. (Heavy Low, 2008) and two samplers. Made In China has previously opened for acts including The Datsuns, Luger Boa, Tainted and Sinate - they will now be supported on the Vice tour by some of New Zealand's finest underground rock acts.

Stoner/doom savvy rock with well-paced song structures imbued with just enough pop sensibility to provide hooks that sink in. www.stonerdoom.co.nz

Notorious for delivering one hell of a live show, [Made In China's] Heavy Low EP is nicely recorded, reminds me of a cross between Nirvana's 'Negative Creep' and 'God Smack' by Alice in Chains… hints of bands like Silverchair and Helmet but there's also a great classic hard rock/blues vibe in there as well… looking f orward to hearing an album from these guys! www.NZRock.com
