Vampire Rodents

Assimilating elements of industrial, rock, jazz and surprisingly, classical music, the quartet known as Vampire Rodents use a collective of musicians plus samples to construct their albums; War Music was the first, in 1988, and was followed by Premonition, Lullaby Land, Clockseed and 1996's Gravity's Rim. The core of the band consists of Victor W. (piano, synth), Anton R. (vocals, guitars), Daniel Vahnke (composition, sampling) and Jing Laoshu (percussion).
