Somewhere, somehow, one of the old Altered Zones editors will see this video. When he does, he might like it so much that it will cause him to roll around in his grave in the shape of a Lamborghini VHS Cassette Rewinder. You can buy them at thrift store Mortuaries in Highland Park.
I wrote about I Come to Shanghai in October. I liked them then. I still like them now.

Their new album, Eternal Life Vol. 2 comes out today on their Bandcamp. They are the Ponce De Leon of the post-chill-trill-frillwave cassette tape Tumblr generation. Remember who told you that sentence first. Frillwave has next. If only the news had made it to the Zones before someone turned their televisions to static.
