Sometimes the 6-7 band shows can be a little tiring; seeing two bands that completely destroy can be very refreshing. Saturday's show was like that. Rebuilding the Rights of Statues were absolutely fantastic - possibly the best they've ever been. Hua Dong had sweat pouring off him halfway through the first song, and Ma Hui and Liu Min were tight tight tight.
Halfway through the show Benjamen leaned over to me and asked if I had their CD; he couldn't believe that a band this good hadn't released one yet. But the wait's almost over! Hua Dong told me that in September 重塑雕像的权利 will finally release an EP. I'll be gone then, but you better believe that disc will get express mailed somehow.
Subs were a little off their game, but still great and as volatile as ever. I didn't see them at MIDI, so I'm curious as to how their sound will translate to the big stage in Inner Mongolia.
