Japandroids share "No Known Drink Or Drug"
Japandroids will release their highly anticipated third album Near To The Wild Heart Of Life on January 27 via ANTI-, and after revealing the roaring title track, they’re now offering a second song from it, “No Known Drink Or Drug.” It starts out sounding like classic Japandroids (hints of “Wet Hair” or “Younger Us” in that guitar), but it turns into something that’s totally a step forward for them. It’s also got a cathartic, heartstring-pulling chorus, and I recommend digging in right now.
Japandroids are also touring with Craig Finn this year, including a big NYC show on February 23 at Terminal 5 (tickets). Craig Finn also has a new album coming, We All Want The Same Thing (due 3/24 via Partisan), and he recently released the lead single, “Preludes.” You can hear that below too.
