Introduction
As a symbol of China's alternative rock, Cold Blooded Animals
was formed in 1994. Then the band involved a great deal of crew
changes. After twelve-year long run, the current band are: Xie
Tianxiao (vocal/guitar), Li Ming (bass) and Wu Rui (drums). Their
music characterizes China's rock music by fusing the energy of
grunge, acid-rock and punk music. With drastic explosive power, you
can also find melody in it. By the end of 1999, Cold Blooded
Animals signed the Scream Records and released their self-titled
album. It cost a whole year to produce the record and all songs
contained are composed by Xie. The unique style and the violent
voice soon got praise from the Chinese music industry. With 150,000
tapes and 20,000 CDs all sold out, the press described the band as
"an amazing beautiful flower blooming in the China's rock soil".
Between 2000 and 2002, with more support, the band engaged in
assorted performances in different countries. As a representative
of China's rock bands, they took part in a series of international
music festivals in Japan and America. The band's name and story are
also published in the world famous rock magazine Rolling
Stone.
