The life cycle of a Shanghai band is short.It’s a reality that Goushen guitarist Lao Bi knows all too well.“We feel like the oldest band in Shanghai,”he sighs.“Why can’t bands keep going past the one or two year mark?Look at how many staples Beijing has.”The hard rocking quartet arose from the ashes of heavy metal group Androsace and thrash-rockers Bigong Bijing,debuting at the 2012 Rocksgiving show with a Black Sabbath set.Releases like KTV 666 and last year’s sterling Dio Cane showcased their chops,incorporating elements of heavy metal,punk,grunge and blues-driven hard rock in one rocking package.
