There is nothing quite like attending a Japanther show, each one is a different animal, and each one brings a smile. 14 new tracks recorded over the past year. Japanther sort of call this album their positive album even though some of the songs are straight up noise, punk, and misunderstood ride your bike anthems, there is a decidedly cheery feel to some (some) of the songs; more than anything, they just want you to go and actually do something fun with your time. But wait, are Japanther now all softies? Nah, they are still unpredictable as ever, and have the tour stories to prove it. Yeah, those stories are probably all true. In the 4 years since Japanther has become a band, there have been many changes, and the 2 boys from Brooklyn have done over 14 US tours, and played over 500 shows.They've been written up in the smallest blog to the highest end European fashion mags, like some questionable café from the 70's, there's a little bit of everything here.
