Japandroids swung by Conan last night to play "The Nights of Wine and Roses," the opening track from last year's Celebration Rock. You can watch that here.
is it bad that celebration rock was my favourite album last year but i'm really disappointed in this?
No, it was a truly awful performance. I watched it with three of my friends and we turned it off a minute in. I don't know if the lead singer's voice was shot or what, but it did not sound good.
Yeah, really weird performance. Brian King's voice was busted or something. He just sort of talked in rhythm, really rare for them not to be 100% into it.
Yeah this was pretty poor unfortunately. These dudes seem like they need a much-deserved break, they definitely are missing the energy they had when I saw them last spring recently.
Surprised at how much that sucked. The drummer kept rushing the beat. Seemed as though he started playing a few months ago. Guitar was quiet and the tone sounded like a small Crate amp.
Super disappointing. Poor dudes must not be having a good day today, they're a hard touring act that sounds like they need a break. With that being said they rip it live, don't let this form an opinion.
