Noise-pop legends The Raveonettes are coming!

The Danish noise-pop legends The Raveonettes will return to China after 11 years for their 2025 tour with their trademark sugar-sweet harmonies, shoegaze fuzz and noir visuals.

This is a rare chance for fans to see one of the most influential alt-rock duos live and loud.

Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo founded The Raveonettes in Copenhagen in 2001, and shot to fame by combining 1950s rock 'n' roll tunes with feedback and distortion.

They specialize in boy-girl vocals, lo-fi guitar textures and minimalist lyrics, often set in B minor and structured around three chords within three minutes. Consequently, their music evokes the image of Buddy Holly wandering through a dreamscape crafted by David Lynch.

Rolling Stone praised their 2002 debut EP, "Whip It On," as a classic, which helped establish them on an international scale.

Following that, the band released albums such as "Chain Gang of Love," "Pretty in Black" and "Lust Lust Lust," blending doo-wop sweetness with a post-punk edge. They have collaborated with notable artists like Ronnie Spector and Martin Rev, and their songs have been featured in shows like "Gossip Girl" and in cult video games.

Currently, they are on tour to promote their 10th studio album, "Pe'ahi II," a much-anticipated follow-up to their 2014 release, "Pe'ahi." This collection is visceral, contemplative and emotionally charged, encapsulating a decade of unfinished thoughts, sonic echoes and personal upheaval.

Tracks like "Strange" and "Blackest" demonstrate the band's ability to combine dreamy melodies with cathartic bursts of noise.

This event promises soaring harmonies, roaring feedback and sheer musical chemistry, whether you've followed The Raveonettes from their early days or are just finding their Scandinavian take on fuzz-pop melancholia.

Relive your youth or find new music to obsess over.
