Description
In honor of Japandroids' massive 47-date world tour, Joyful Noise is releasing a limited edition cassette of the bands acclaimed second album "Celebration Rock." Our buddies at Polyvinyl released the album on LP/CD a couple months ago, and since that time "Celebration Rock" has been praised by Rolling Stone (named one of the 10 Greatest Summer Albums of All Time), Pitchfork (Best New Music), SPIN (9/10), etc.
So yes, it's a pretty damn good album. And we're super excited to give it a limited edition cassette release!
Limited to just 500 hand-numbered copies on black cassettes, purchase includes an instant MP3 download and ships immediately.
Press
Named one of "The 10 Greatest Summer Albums of All Time"
-- Rolling Stone
-- Rolling Stone
"I think it's the best rock record I've heard this year."
-- NPR'S 'All Things Considered'
"a rock record for the ages"
-- Pitchfork 'Best New Music' 8.8
"These two know how hard they've worked to buy themselves some time, and how expensive and precious time can get, the darkness of maturity creeping closer but never quite arriving. This is not the sound of settling."
-- Spin 9/10
"Of recent two-member bands - from the White Stripes to the Black Keys to No Age and more - Japandroids have by far the most exuberant, affirming live show."
-- NY Times
"This Vancouver duo could ignite arenas with their raging anthems of late nights and wasted youth. Highlight: the Springsteen-style rager 'The House That Heaven Built.' Perhaps not since Nirvana has a Northwest band rocked with such fury."
-- People Magazine ****
"There's an awesome racket that only a raw rock duo can make -- the kind that crushes the bloated 'our guitar tech has a guitar tech' histrionics of bigger bands....Now comes Celebration Rock another excellent burst of garage-rattling noise meant to soundtrack misspent youth (or just recapture it)."
-- Entertainment Weekly 'Summer Breakouts'
"Celebration Rock starts strong and stays there over the course of its eight songs and 35 minutes."
-- The Onion-A
"Imagine a different Eighties: The Replacements made Born in the USA, Hüsker Dü were Hulk Hogan's entrance music, and indie rock was the keggercrushing choice of Top Gun America."
-- Rolling Stone ****
"The band has said that the album was made with joyous audience sing-alongs in mind, and Celebration inspires that and more: On your headphones, Japandroids are a fun walk to the subway. Live, they're a pop-punk revelation."
-- Time Out NY
