History
Gong Gong Gong performed their first show at the closing party for Beijing venue XP in summer 2015. Guitarist Joshua Frank was born in Montreal to Canadian diplomatic workers, and spent many years growing up in Beijing in the 1990s, before returning in 2006 and forming the band Hot & Cold with his brother. Bassist and vocalist Tom Ng moved to Beijing from Hong Kong in 2009 with his previous band, The Offset: Spectacles. Ng performs lyrics in his native language, Cantonese,[1][2] which Frank is unable to speak.[3] The band would later perform at a city underpass, and then at Fruityspace, a DIY venue founded at an independent record store.[2][4] Their debut studio album, Phantom Rhythm, was released in October 2019 on Wharf Cat Records, and was covered by outlets such as Allmusic,[5] Pitchfork [6] and Louder Than War.[7] The album was featured on year-end lists from Aquarium Drunkard,[8] Loud and Quiet,[9] Raven Sings The Blues[10] and the CBC.[11] During 2019, the band toured Europe and China and performed at the South by Southwest festival and at MoMA PS1 in New York City.[12]
On 25 June 2021, the band released Phantom Rhythm Remixed, a remix album of their studio debut. The album was announced in March alongside a music video for a remix of the track "Some Kind of Demon" by Chinese-born electronic music producer Yu Su.[13][14]
In December 2023, Gong Gong Gong announced their second studio album, Mongkok Duel, a split with Taiwanese duo Mong Tong. It was initially released as a vinyl exclusive via Bandcamp and live shows.[15][16]
