Japandroids: "The House That Heaven Built" (Video)

Usually it takes more than black-and-white tour footage to make an engaging music video, but somehow director Jim Larson pulls just the right shots from Japandroids' latest adventures to assemble the perfect visual accompaniment to this explosive summer anthem. Raw, wild, and blindingly alive, the following clip for The House That Heaven Built" makes a Japandroids tour look like one of the more fun things you could do with yourself. Watch below.
