After our last post, highlighting some car-crash American wannabee Chinese pop music, the following video has come to light. Amateur (or professional?) movie maker Shaun Jefford has made a full length documentary called Beijing Punk, seemingly last year, but is looking for distribution currently.
It’s pretty cool, and we like the raw imagery of Tongzhou and urban Beijing, although the last time we saw Hedgehog, we could swear they weren’t punks at all. Above all, this shows the raw, visceral power of one of our favorite bands, Demerit.
