Čínská Čtvrť

Czech goth/post-punk group formed in 1988 by Daniel Rodný and Samir Hauser. The duo was joined by Petr Lhota on drums, Ivo Jebousek on bass guitar and Jan Gregar (later replaced by Jaroslav Friedl) on guitar. Their sound was dominated by gloomy keyboard lines, reverberated guitar and dark vocal, influenced by the British goth scene, notably Joy Division, Sisters of Mercy, Fields Of The Nephilim and The Cure. Čínská Čtvrť disbanded in 1990 when the two founding members began to devote themselves entirely to their new project Vanessa (16).
