Thursday, February 18th, 2010Danwei Music: Chinese American Hardcore band Say Bok Gwai
Thursday, February 11th, 2010This episode of Danwei Music is about Say Bok Gwai (死白鬼), San Francisco's first Chinese American hardcore band. Say Bok Gwai's original compositions are rooted in American punk/thrash/ hardcore music but sung primarily in Cantonese. The subject matter of their lyrics ranges from Chinese American identity to grappling with traditional Chinese values. Their music is not for the timid or easily offended. Frontman Alex Yeung is a long time San Franciscan musician who has worked in both the local rock and experimental music scenes. Alex serves as the songwriter and guitarist for Say Bok Gwai, as well as playing guitar for the instrumental group Fear of Math. Drummer Andre Custodio has been an integral part of the Bay Area experimental music scene for over 10 years and is also part of the experimental trio, Tri-Cornered Tent Show. Say Bok Gwai has released their self-titled debut CD on Monkey King Reccords. This episode of Danwei Music was shot and edited by Anna Sophie Loewenberg, with music by Say Bok Gwai and the intro tune by Beijing band Reflector. www.danwei.tv Links: Say Bok Gwai homepage: www.monkeykingrecords.com/sbg Say Bok Gwai Myspace page: www.myspace.com/sbg danwei.org Sexy Beijing is now on its own website check the latest episodes at www.sexybeijing.tv
