Born in the shadow of a post-Tiananmen nihilism, the collapse of state-run industry and a desert that will someday swallow their city whole, Cut Off, the first EP from pioneering Beijing-based post-punks Rebuilding the Rights of Statues, delivers explosive, danceable, unsettling energy that leaves you unsure whether you want to take your clothes off and shake the spiders out, or go look for a rope, a closet and a copy of Iggy Pop's The Idiot.

CD $9.99
