Here is my attempt to translate what Lu wrote into Chinese:

Hope it helps!

http://mp3.baidu.com/m?tn=baidump3&c...C2%DE%C8%D1%B8finally I found what I was looking for.
爱情转移 (陈奕迅) It is not rock and roll but still very good music. It has enough sadness .

There is a wealth of "hidden" rock and and indie Chinese music, that you will only find if you
spend a bit more time digging around for a bit.

There is a pretty decent compilation series from China called "Modern Sky", that focuses on the
more mainstream kind of rock and indie rock.

Beyond the godfather 崔健 and other older rock acts, some newer bands that I find interesting
(off the top of my head):

mainland:
新裤子 -(new pants) smarty-pants electro indie-pop
木马(muma) indie rock
瘦人 （thin man) rock/metal
二手玫瑰 (second hand rose) rock mixed with beijing opera theatrics
郑钧 － melodic catchy rock, a popular favourite
超载 － a well-known metal act that has somehow gone kinda pop-disco in the last couple of
albums

Taiwan:
杨乃文 Faith Yeung (britpop with an edge － incidentally, she is v. gorgeous)
伍佰 wubai Very famous asian rock singer, wrote many well known songs that were covered by many
artists, he also sings in taiyu.
1976 - college rock band, these guys sound like they grew up listening to joy division & new order

You might like to check out niubi's pages at niubi.com, you can see the album art and links to
where you can get these albums outside Asia:

I posted a list with rock and other alternative music some time ago somewhere else in the music
forum, you can try and find that. There are several threads like this one.

Rezaf: I was just kidding, that's not the name of the genre or band. There are a lot of sad cheesy
Chinese songs, don't know many titles as I don't particularly like cheesy songs. One that comes to
mind is 童話, by Michael, forgot his Chinese name. If you are in China, just watch some Channel
V or MTV and you'll know what kind of song I mean.

they certainly don't have any talent in rock music.
