Finding it difficult to record a full album while in the midst of a heavy touring schedule behind 2009’s acclaimed Post-Nothing, Japandroids devised a 7″ series as a way to give something back to its fans.

Recorded during the duo’s brief period of time off between tours, each two-song 7″ in the five-part series will include an A-side of previously unreleased material written during the Post-Nothing sessions and a cover B-side.

In addition to the title track, Art Czars features “Racer X” — a Big Black cover and live favorite.

The 7″ was limited to 2000 copies and is now out-of-print.
