About
China Crisis are an English new wave and synth-pop band formed in Kirkby, near Liverpool, Merseyside, in 1979 with a core of lead vocalist/keyboardist Gary Daly and guitarist/vocalist Eddie Lundon. Initially a politically charged post-punk band influenced by Brian Eno's ambient soundscapes, China Crisis soon crossed over to a more commercial sound and had success in the United Kingdom in the 1980s with ten top-50 singles, including the top-10 hit "Wishful Thinking", and three albums charting in or just outside the top 20, including Working with Fire and Steel and the top-10 entry Flaunt the Imperfection, that both received a gold certification.

China Crisis est un groupe anglais originaire de Liverpool, tenant d'une musique pop et new wave des années 1980. Les titres Wishful Thinking et King in a catholic style ont été notamment bien classés dans les charts. Leurs compositions douces et harmonieuses les associeront naturellement au mouvement musical des nouveaux romantiques.
