P.K. 14 (Public Kingdom for Teens) is the most influential Chinese post-punk band. The singer, Yang Haisong is one of China’s  better-known young poets. Their music is influenced by Joy Division, Talking Heads, Television, Pere Ubu, Fugazi, Bauhaus, Wilco and more. The album „1984” was recorded in Chicago with Steve Albini!

It’s released in August on CD and digitally by Maybe Mars Records, but now it’s on vinyl too by  Tenzemen.

Yang Haisong has two sideprojects. Dear Eloise – electro noise pop with his wife, and After Argument – shows his interests in Washington D.C. punk bands.
