He has literally the worst guitar tone of any touring band right now it's just god awful

He puts so much into his music, but I can't help be bored with that song they did.

Sorry but I did not enjoy that. I really dislike what I've heard from japandroids so take this for what it's worth:

They did not kill it. Their instrumental performance really wasn't that great. Especially the guitarist. Though that may be due to the song which had few redeeming qualities in the way it was presented.

To me it sounded like a two piece blink 182 tribute band trying to reproduce Buddha or Cheshire Cat.

They're not my cup of tea, but I wanted to throw out a short analysis after listening to them once more.

Says the guy who is completely obsessed with me.

And I can't criticize someone's tone if its bad? Just because I posted about their show?

Their record is great. And they are high energy live.

But he has really really bad tone

I saw them live in St Louis last year. I couldn't make out any of the vocals. And yes, the guitar tone more resembles noise than melody

I still love all their studio work!
