Due to unforeseen circumstances, Japandroids have been forced to cancel their appearance at BC Scene.  We regret any inconvenience this may have caused.

Vancouver’s resident dance-punk savants You Say Party! We Say Die! insist that if you’re doing what you really love then life feels like a party. They’re taking on the world on their own terms with a frenzied, clever collision of synths, beats, and singer Becky Ninkovic’s “ululating shriek of a voice.” With a strong international following built on songs that engage the audience through hyperactive danceability and a giddy sense of fun, YSP! WSD! is a high-octane punk-dance band for the new millennium.

They share the stage with Immaculate Machine, the acclaimed indie rock band from Victoria. Immaculate Machine is a tight trio that sings in three-part harmonies and strangled shouts above crashing drums, catchy keyboards and electric guitar. Rotating lead vocals and songwriting contributions from all three members result in a style that is truly hard to pin down, but growing up with grunge and punk, they quickly developed an appetite for all types of music, new and old.

About the Scene
