Subs - You Are You

Facts 2014 album, the first domestic release from the Chinese underground Punk band. At the center of China's burgeoning rock scene is Beijing, and in the middle of the capital's underground is Subs, a 100% DIY punk unit with a cult domestic following. Subs vocalist Kang Mao and guitarist Wu Hao met in 1997 while at university in the central Chinese industrial city of Wuhan, where they were both deeply involved in the then-burgeoning punk rock scene. Throughout their career, Subs has by choice remained the only band of it's stature in China to maintain complete independence, booking all of their shows and releasing all of their records without a middleman despite having no alternate source of income. Undergoing several lineup changes over the years, in 2014 Subs stripped down to a three-piece, with Texas native Josh Feola (ex-Chui Wan, Mind Eraser) stepping behind the drums. They self-released YOU ARE YOU in March 2014, shedding a bit of their overdriven punk edge to experiment with new wave, post-punk, psych and electronic influences that have seeped in over the years.
