Welcome to Rock3 Rock News & Music Reviews

The single 'TRIP THE LIGHT FANTASTIC' is the first release from this amazingly talented quartet and really is only the beginning of things to come. With songs every bit as vast and epic as their namesake, the band have been able to interweave soaring melody, rich harmonies, with synths and syncopation. Like a revved-up Depeche Mode, but with guitars and bigger amps. CHINASTYLE will excite the senses and enlighten the soul.

Not every band can claim that they got together whilst playing a huge open-air festival in the Henan Province of China; and not every band can boast talent ranging from the bands GETAMP3D, Rooster and Pitchshifter. CHINASTYLE can.

In October 2007 these four guys realized that their special bond could create an immense fortress of music, CHINASTYLE was born. The four members of the band have toured relentlessly over the last few years (in their previous guises) and been responsible for over a quarter of a million album sales worldwide.
