Lonely China Day () is a Chinese indie rock band from Beijing.〔Pareles, Jon. "(Singing and Doing the Hustle in Austin )", The New York Times, published March 19, 2007, accessed February 15, 2008.〕 ==Music== The marquee band of the Tag Team Records label,〔Song, Berwin. "(Up Front: Capital Records )", That's Beijing Magazine online, published September 2, 2007, accessed February 15, 2008.〕 Lonely China Day has a sound that has been compared to that of Sigur Rós, due to a use of methodical, droning guitars and non-English lyrics.〔〔Mason, Stewart. "(Sorrow - Overview )", Allmusic, accessed February 15, 2008.〕 Lead singer Deng Pei performs in Mandarin, drawing some of his lyrics from ancient Chinese poetry.〔 Deng Pei was a natural left-handed guitar player, but as he was not initially able to locate and acquire a left-handed guitar, he performed from the opposite side until he sustained an injury to his little finger, necessitating a change back to his natural side.〔 The band released their debut, an eponymous EP, with Tag Team in 2006, and followed up with their full length debut, entitled ''Sorrow'', in 2007. Allmusic gave ''Sorrow'' a largely positive review, awarding three stars out of a possible five.〔 Reviewer Stewart Mason said that "fans of...ambitious neo-prog will likely find much to enjoy on Sorrow", but also noted that the album might seem inaccessible to casual listeners.〔 That same year, Lonely China Day performed at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas.〔Beets, Greg. "(Japaniversary - Japan, China, and southward along the Pacific Rim )", The Austin Chronicle, published February 23, 2007, accessed February 15, 2008.〕 Their second album, ''This Readily Assimilative People'', was released on June 19, 2010. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lonely China Day」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
