Polyvinyl Records is pleased to announce the release of POST-NOTHING, the debut full-length from Vancouver. B.C. band Japandroids.

Japandroids is a two-piece band from Vancouver, BC. The band started in 2006 as a creative outlet for the post-teenage angst of Brian King and David Prowse. Originally intending to be a trio, the boys decided to forgo the logistical nightmare of having a lead singer and do it themselves. As a consequence, Japandroids are one guitar, one set of drums, and two vocalizers. They call it “garage rock.” They don't care what you call it, as long as it's not minimal. Japandroids are maximal - a two-piece band trying to sound like a five-piece band.

Pitchfork recently christened the Japandroids track, “Young Hearts Spark Fire” (from POST-NOTHING) with :”On Repeat” status, and said, “..Two guys from Vancouver who make distortion-cranked garage-rock anthems about fleeting youth: the boys leaving town, drinking, hurting, French kissing some French girls, and then quitting girls altogether..."Young Hearts Spark Fire" is just one of the raggedly emotive standouts on the record, young hearts igniting the duo's stripped-down drums-and-guitar setup into an explosive thing, equal parts insolence and grandeur.” Meanwhile, Exclaim has said of the band, “This duo create bare-bones garage noise that tears itself apart and then somehow finds a way to come back together at the seams again. Although the band’s only comprised of Brian King and David Prowse, they made it a mission to sound as if they’re a five piece, and they can consider it a mission accomplished.”
