Where Post-Nothing featured minimalist lyrical refrains about young lust and escapism repeated ad nauseam, Celebration Rock pulled lyrics from the exclamations of the band’s fans at a show or from drunken statements of validation on the best night out ever. Amassing heaps of critical praise following their 2009 commercial debut Post-Nothing, their 2012 sophomore effort, Celebration Rock, was the rare guitar album that managed to sound both fresh and familiar, abrasive yet catchy, and feel emotional despite riding almost entirely on positive emotions. Vancouver garage rock duo Japandroids have made a name for themselves as the best guitar/drums act since the late White Stripes.
