This is like my post withdrawal of Pop Montreal.
Here is my album picks for this week.
Japandroids – Post-Nothing
Ever having this album in vinyl format, finally got the CD version.
Such fun rocking crazy album and seeing them live is ten times better.
Apparently I added them on my previous album picks, guess it couldn’t hurt.
