The Chinese Stars - Cheap City Halo Girls Of Las Vegas

Review by Malin Cederberg

The album Cheap City Halo Girls of Las Vegas by Chinese Stars is a unique blend of punk, post-punk, and experimental rock. The band's signature sound is characterized by frenzied, angular guitar riffs, driving bass lines, and propulsive drumming, all anchored by the distinctive vocals of frontman Eric Paul.

The album opens with the frenetic "The Fastest Horse in Town," which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Tracks like "Cheap City Halo," "Las Vegas," and "Waste of Life" showcase the band's ability to craft catchy, hook-filled songs that still retain their raw, punk edge.

Other tracks on the album, such as "Baltimore" and "The Day We Were Born," showcase the band's more experimental side. These songs feature dissonant guitar lines, unconventional rhythms, and abstract lyrics that add an extra layer of depth and complexity to the record.
