Maybe Mars

It's official.
Legendary Chinese indie rock band CARSICK CARS will return to Australia for the first time since 2017.
Formed in Beijing in 2005, the band are regarded as pioneers - and perhaps now, elder statespeople - of the domestic indie/noise rock scene. They have released three albums (the most recent, '3', produced by Sonic Boom of SPACEMEN 3 and the late, great Hamish Kilgour of the Clean) and toured the world extensively, racking up shows with SONIC YOUTH and slots on festivals including ALL TOMORROW'S PARTIES.
Influenced by Sonic Youth, Velvet Underground, Su***de, Glenn Branca, the Stooges, and Joy Division, Carsick Cars gigs are riotous explosions of pent-up energy and frustration. There's a certain fearlessness to their music: they are not afraid to write perfect, instantaneously catchy songs and they are just as unafraid of detonating them midstream amid a howling wall of guitar noise.

After some personnel reshuffling over the years, the original trio of Zhang Shouwang (guitar and vocals), Li Qing (drums) and Li Weisi (bass) - the line-up which recorded the band's 2007 self-titled classic - have reunited and will be making their long awaited return to Australia.
