Japandroids are a Canadian rock duo formed in Vancouver in 2006. They are best known for their raw, high-energy live shows and anthemic, guitar-driven indie rock. Heralded as a late-career revitalization, "Fate & Alcohol" arrived in the fall of 2024, finding the band still working with their longtime label Anti-, and continuing their exploration of their signature sound.
