There was an explosion of Chinese punk/alt bands late 90s/ early 2000s but they gave way to hip hop/pop. Still a decent scene in Beijing. One of my favorite bands from that era is called Wood pushing melon (木推瓜).

The lead singer left that band and started an incredible tribal folk group called Dawanggang next

Yep. There's a lot of Chinese punk, post-punk, goth, New Wave etc etc etc. sadly, outside of China you don't hear much about it because of the old firewall and of course language barriers.
