Snapline

Snapline is a Beijing-based post-punk band known for their subversive approach to music and their unique blend of minimalist rock, electronic elements, and experimental noise. The band, formed in 2005, consists of Li Qing (guitar, synthesizer), Li Weisi (bass, synthesizer), and vocalist Chen Xi. Snapline's sound has been characterized by driving beats, atmospheric synths, and a dark aesthetic that reflects urban alienation and avant-garde tendencies.

The band gained attention with their debut album, "Party Is Over, Pornostar," in 2007, which was followed by a string of releases that cemented their reputation within China's underground music scene and beyond. Their album "Phenomena" (2011) marked a significant point in their discography, showcasing their evolving sound and complex lyrical themes. Over the years, Snapline has continued to challenge the boundaries of genre and form with projects like "Tent," "TheAnswerS#3," and "Paper General," further refining their distinctive sound. The "Party Is Over, Pornostar (Martin Atkins Version)" provides a reinterpretation of their earlier work, emphasizing the band's willingness to revisit and reinvent their musical identity.
