Let the epic battle begin as the not-at-all-Asian duo head to the shores of Britain for their first ever gigs in the sovereign state. The hotly-tipped Canadians will arrive in late October for a handful of shows of their own before hitching their wagon to A Place To Bury Strangers who will be adopting them as support band for their U.
Japandroids recently played the Pitchfork festival and were well received by one well regarded music blogger, You Ain't No Picasso. For an up and coming band, it don't get much better than this quote:"Well within just a few seconds of their first set I was jerked headfirst into fandom."Their album, Post-Nothing, came out today on Polyvinyl Records.
