I didn't want to like Japandroids. Eardrum busting rock & roll is not typically my genre of choice, but trying to deny the kick-assery of this Vancouver-based duo has been an exercise in futility.Their new album, Celebration Rock, is a runaway train of guitar riffs and clashing cymbals that refuses to slow down for anyone or anything and I am officially on board."The Nights of Wine and Roses" fittingly kicks off the album in true rabble-rousing fashion. So go ahead and start "yelling like hell to the heavens" because summer's here and Japandroids have just the album to help you celebrate.
