More than ten years ago, Birmingham's Tsien recorded their debut album "No Two People Are Not On Fire". Unfortunately, the band split up before they had the chance to ever release this six-piece work. In order to prevent the people inside and outside of England's second-largest city from forgetting about them, the original material has now been re-discovered, re-mixed, and re-mastered.
According to the press kit, "No Two People Are Not On Fire" is not current, not particularly wee recorded, but mos certainly a sweet little gem from the past that deserves to receive a bit of attention and love.
The best way to describe the band's only album is by calling it eclectic, emotional, and loud. Tsien provide our ears with the rough and edgy sounds of Post Hardcore combined sensually disharmonic vocals. The gloomy heritage of post-90s Alternative Rock has left its traces on the album as well which can be spotted in atmospheric silken-dark passages and sonorous chants. The breaks are often introduced via harsh Noise attacks and intelligent changes in tempo and metre.
Tsien play the kind of music that sounds perfect at open air gigs in abandoned industrial zones. Their mix of Noise, Math Rock, Alternative Rock, and Post Hardcore musicks a dystopian future, and a rebirth from the rubble.
