The Chinese Stars tour announced w/ Six Finger Satellite, Sensitive Hearts

The Chinese Stars' new full-length, "Heaven on Speed Dial", will be released October 13th on Anchor Brain. The group will kick off a U.S. tour with labelmates Sensitive Hearts and Six Finger Satellite on October 22nd. Six Finger Satellite will perform on the dates from October 22nd to the 26th, and Sensitive Hearts will continue throughout the month of November for all but a few of the dates.

On the Chinese Stars’ third full-length release, "Heaven on Speed Dial", the band delivers their own brand of rock'n'roll justice with hands and instruments that were just fished out of a downtown city sewer. The band features Craig Kureck and Eric Paul formerly of Arab on Radar, a band that took the piss-dosed torch from Six Finger Satellite and further coated the world with their own blend of animalistic heromones. The pair are joined by Paul Vieira, whose wild and untamed playing on the band’s previous records - "Listen to Your Left Brain" and "A Rare Sensation" (Three One G) - burrowed The Chinese Stars' music into thousands of unwilling brains around the world. V. Von Ricci, the local experimental music pioneer of the Providence band Mahi Mahi, is the newest member of The Chinese Stars and has no trouble adding his own flavor to the madness.

"Heaven on Speed Dial" turns out dance music for white padded cells, themes from porno films yet to be made, lyrical groans from dark checkerboard floors, glow-in-the-dark rhythms and fierce undomesticated guitar thrashings. This record is filthy and raw.
