Rise to Power: Imperial China

topstopchina.jpg THEY MAY BE new to the D.C. scene, but that didn't stop Imperial China from snagging the headlining spot at the Rock and Roll Hotel back in the spring. Now, they're taking on the Black Cat's backstage.

The three-man experimental rock group has a fast-paced and surprisingly full sound, and traditional instruments are peppered with hearty electronics. You can pick up their first EP tonight (short but sweet, 4 songs, 24 minutes. Bam!) as they share a bill with Caverns and True Womanhood.

» Black Cat, 1811 14th St. NW; Wed., Aug. 27, 9 p.m., $8; 202-667-4490. (U St.-Cardozo)
