- Billboard Vol. 112, No. 34 19 Aug 2000 - Page 54 "But now the definition of "mainstream" is changing on the mainland as Chinese rock bands start to come into their own. The growing success and the increasing official acceptance of Beijing's rising star band, Thin Man, is instructive. Thin Man, currently signed with Beijing's state-owned Jingwen and hardcore trailblazer Scream Records, has been a maverick from the start. The four-man band, led by singer Dai Qin from Inner Mongolia, has followed a unique strategy in its pursuit of success in China. "
