Tang Dynasty

Tang Dynasty (唐朝 - Táng Cháo​), formed in 1988, is often credited as being China's first Heavy Metal band. The music of Tang Dynasty was in their beginning mostly melancholic, partly depressive, lost in the try to escape into a imaginary dreamworld and full of contrasts. It expressed what Tang Dynasty saw as their way to show honesty and true feelings. Tang Dynasty had four initial band members: Ding Wu, Zhang Ju, Kaiser Kuo and Andrew Szabo.
