2020 has ended and died a horrible death! But there’s still no sure thing 2021 is going to be any better. Never to be outdone, and rather than allow us to die at the hands of whatever the hell 2021 has in store for us, metal demands that it be the executioner of all your hopes and dreams!
Not wasting anytime, Shanghai’s forces of metal have been summoned just for this purpose. Prepare to usher in another doomed year, this time on metal’s terms!
2020年总算要悲惨的结束了！但2021年的情况是否会好转，仍然没有定论。为了不再被超越，为了不让我们死在2021年为我们准备的邪恶之手，金属要求它成为你所有希望和梦想的刽子手!
为了不浪费时间，上海的金属部队被召集来*是为了这个目的。准备迎接另一个注定失败的一年吧!
“Being the deity of metal and orgies can be tough. So when I need to raise the ol’ devil horn, I down a bottle of Jack Daniels, and blast a Chimera Cult album. Brings me from Diabno to Diablo!” – Satan (CEO of Hell and its subsidiaries)
Chimera Cult
Combined from the post covid remains of Hitobashira, Alpaca, and Hydraslug. They’re bringing together the legacies of all these bands, and defiling them with whatever the fuck eclectic, stream-of-conscious guilty pleasure filthy metal they shit out!
“成为金属和狂欢的神灵可能很难。因此我需要举起魔鬼的号角，灌下一瓶杰克·丹尼尔斯，然后播放Chimera Cult的专辑。带我从Diabno到Diablo！”–撒旦（地狱及其子公司的首席执行官）
结合了Hitobashira，Alpaca和Hydraslug的余孽。他们汇集了所有这些乐队的产物，用兼收并蓄、意气用事、带有负罪的快感创作出的肮脏金属玷污他们!
Blood of Life

血行于人之脉中，
循环流注于全身，
血乃生命之源泉，
金属乃精神命脉！
金属乃生命之血！

Solidal(牢铝) is prog metal band based in Shanghai, China. The name originated from a phrase in local dialect, which simply means ‘awesome’. Its members all have rich but different musical backgrounds, yet understandably, owe their encounter to equal passion for heavy music. The chemicals between them gave birth to phenomenally creative music that was never before heard. It’s harsh yet elegant, aggressive yet never lacking ingenuity. It’s the child of prog metal & jazz, those odd time signatures and slippery pockets invite you to an unsettling brainstorm; it’s the combo of metal-core & post-rock, there are plenty of breakdowns and enormous walls of sounds that guarantee you an amazing live experience. It’s an assembly all music possible yet always armed with heavy weaponry; it’s the integration of adept techniques and unique aesthetics, which unremittingly pushes forward the standard of progressiveness.
As former members of local heavy metal bands, each individual member of Solidal is an experienced veteran in the field. Shortly after their formation, they won the Best New Metal Artist/band prize issued by China’s biggest open air music festival—MIDI Festival, and kept on establishing quality music. To this day, they have put out three EPs and opened for many big names in the field, such as Dreamshade, Intervals, Modern Day Babylon, SHOKRAN and many more. In 2019, they were invited to play the main stage for Busan International Rock Festival in Korea.
The good news is, after years of searching for a vocalist, Solidal had finally found the final touch to their recipe, and once again introduced themselves to the world with a brand-new line-up. so proudly as the rising star of China’s progressive music scene.
