The Chinese Stars
Arab On Radar broke up in 2002, and the next year ex-Arabs Eric Paul and Craig Kureck joined The Chinese Stars. The Rhode Island-based band—which recently formed its own imprint Anchor Brain—plays the kind of spastic-sounding art-school rock that helped to break its former label, Three One G, in the early 2000s. On this year’s Heaven On Speed Dial, its first release for Anchor Brain, Paul yells through noisy, neck-breaking guitar parts and rhythmic basslines—it’s raucous dance music for kids that listen to noise, and even the cowbell sounds good.
