Japanther's New Video Is the Reason Your Neighborhood Is All Tagged Up

Check out the Brooklyn two-piece's very stickable video for "Do It (Don't Try It)".

If you see a bunch of USPS stickers tagged in black marker on your bike, your street sign, or your dog, it's probably because of Japanther. By our count, they used approximately one shit-ton of them making their new video for "Do It (Don't Try It)" which is a super conflicting message for a song title. If they're talking about making your own tags on Priority Mail labels when they say "do it," then we're way ahead of them. We've tried making a whole bunch but we always end up with that weird "S" thing everyone drew on their notebooks in school.
