Tang Dynasty rose to fame in 1992 with a self-titled debut album (music)|album. Their sound is part progressive metal and part traditional Chinese vocals|vocal techniques with lyrics meant to hearken back to the glorious days of Chinese civilization. Tang Dynasty soon became the icon of Chinese rock, and their lightning-fast guitarist Liu Yijun (刘义军) "Lao Wu" became the first guitar hero in China. However, the 1995 death of bassist Zhang Ju (张炬) in a motorcycle accident dealt a heavy blow to the band and its subsequent release "Epic", 7 years after its debut, received lukewarm reviews. The band still plays live in Beijing occasionally, although no firm date has been set for a new album. band-stub Category:Chinese musicians de:Tang Chao zh:唐朝乐队 This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License.
