惘闻 Wǎng Wén






Switching gears once again, we return to China for another great post-rock band. China has been a definite source of my attention  and interest musically for the past couple years. When coming acorns bands such as Wǎng Wén, i'ts not difficult to see why. Influenced by the likes of Tortoise, Mogwai and Mono, Wǎng Wén could in many ways be considered the child of these great post-rock acts. They combine so many of the wonderful traits that many post-rock fanatics have come to know and love. The flawless execution of sad melodies by way of piano, vibrant whirling guitars and soothing string passages evokes a myriad of emotions This in lies the sheer power of music. The intertwining of so many musical elements will intoxicate you as you engage in a wonderful musical journey
