OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH, WE USED TO DREAM
NOW WE WORRY ABOUT DYIN'
I have no reason for not listening to Japandroids sooner other than I just sorta suck and haven't been on top of the music front lately. Take a hint from Pitchfork, though. When they named Japandroids with "best new music," they really meant nothing less. Forget your pussy acoustic shit and get your musical taste kicked in the ass by a band that's giving a huge "fuck you" to conventions.
Maybe one of the most interesting things that most people will comment on is how a two-piece band manages to sound like five dudes beating the hell out of their instruments. That sounds bad, but trust me, it is way more awesome than you could ever know.
There hasn't been a band that makes me want to mosh or fuck shit up since my screamo-loving days, however, Japandroids prove to be the exception. Are they loud beyond all tolerance? Yeah. Can they sing? No. Do they sound like they give a fuck about what you think? No.
Perfect.
