Japanther can be drippy-sweet power-pop, tight-leather retro-rock and even contemplative borderline emo. It's physical and emotional. Don't be ashamed to know the words and sing along, they might need your help remembering where they are when the set comes crashing down. Don't worry. If it does, they'll give you a do-over. This was one of the most packed, energy-filled crowds I've ever seen at the Hemlock Tavern. I'm inspired by their power and performance. http://japanther.com/
