Most recently, at the peak of youth fashion wasemo movement. Hundreds of guys and girls grew long bangs, changed their wardrobe for pink and black things and completely immersed in this subculture. It is also justified that in that period informal groups began to appear, creating appropriate music and falling under this style. Perhaps the group “China” can be considered the most popular and successful of the new teams of that period.
Team biography
The history of the group can be traced back to about 2007.year, and by 2012 it ceased to exist. The team of 4 musicians received the final design just in the year of their creation, and after that they began to call themselves as a group “China”. Their biography is not replete with frequent changes of composition, the departure of soloists or musicians. Perhaps the reason for this is that they have existed for a very long time. The participants themselves believe that the group “China” was so stable, because like-minded people with similar tastes and concepts in music were selected in it. In addition, the leadership of an experienced producer was noted, who did not allow disagreements and quarrels to appear within the group. The only change was the departure of the original drummer, but it occurred at a very early stage of development. This replacement of the participant contributed to the fact that the group "China" gained its popularity.
Team soloist
Гитаристом и одновременно отвечающим за вокал в the group was Grisha Rainbow. If you rely on his story about your life, you can conclude that it is versatile in its hobbies and, like many creative people, it does not tolerate control from others. The soloist of the group "China" was originally engaged in the martial arts, in which he achieved considerable success. Music entered his life only after 14 years. Then he entered a music school and chose this occupation for himself as the main one. Having devoted a lot of time to creativity, he paid little attention to studying and communicating with people around him. Perhaps, precisely because of this, in his own words, he had frequent conflicts within the school. The gothic style and the romance of darkness so fascinated the soloist that he literally fully sought to comply with all the canons of the trends.
Other participants
In addition to the soloist, the group "China" consists of three morethe man is two guitarists and a drummer. Each of them told about his life and about the appearance in the ensemble. For example, Pasha Skitles - (guitarist) got into the composition at the invitation of the soloist. Prior to this, his musical career was not very successful. The guy tried himself in another group, but she broke up very quickly and had almost no success. Another member is Sonya Fink, the only girl and bass player as well. She, in her own interview, was in her childhood quite a homely girl who was fond of dancing, music and embroidery. Her life changed acquaintance with Grisha, after which their strong friendship began. The dream of creating a team has always fascinated friends. As a result, the group appeared "China". The band would be incomplete without drummer Sergey Dzhus. The guy appeared the last of the guys, he became a fixing link in the team.
Band music
The style that fits the creativity of thiscollective, you can call punk rock. The elements of emo culture had a strong influence on both the sound and the lyrics of the songs themselves. It was the coincidence of the style of the collective and the desires of young people in that period that became the reason for the success that its music received. The group "China" performs songs not only in Russian, there are also English texts or individual elements in the compositions in its repertoire. Sometimes her work is equated with the Tokio Hotel group, calling it a simplified Russian version. However, the differences can still be found, and the images of the guys are not completely copied.
