A NEW CHINESE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE

Say Bok Gwai is San Francisco's first Chinese American hardcore band, melding two distinct cultures into a completely unique sound. Say Bok Gwai's original compositions are rooted in American punk/thrash/hardcore music and sung primarily in Cantonese. The subject matter ranges from Chinese American identity to grappling with traditional Chinese values and down with "the man" aesthetics.
Say Bok Gwai is a Chinese American band that pushes the envelope of musical, social, and political extremes. Say Bok Gwai shows a new face of Chinese American music and is not for the timid or easily offended.

"This record is relentless - every track seems to want to come bursting through the speakers, grab you by the ears and shake vigorously. It's almost impossible to believe that two guys could make that much snarling angry music on a disc that only lasts a half an hour or so."
