The Two Other Comrades – The Two Other Comrades 1

The Other Two Comrades was an avant-garde music group led by multi-instrumentalist Huan Qing. Active in the late-1990s and early-2000s in Chengdu, Sichuan province, the group was one of the cores of Chengdu’s earliest rock scene as well as a pioneer of experimental rock and avant-garde music in the Chinese underground. The band went on hiatus when Huan Qing left Chengdu in mid-2000s to focus working on folk songs and traditional music in Southern China. These two cassette releases are reissues of the group’s long out-of-print first two albums, both hand-numbered and limited to 400 copies. New artworks were made by woodcut artist Liu Qingyuan.
