Japandroids’ “The House That Heaven Built” becomes official Canucks anthem

If you spent most of 2012 thinking that “The House That Heaven Built,” Japandroids’ unstoppable anthem from Celebration Rock and our number 3 song of the year, was a perfect sports anthem, then your wish has been granted. Spin reports that the Vancouver Canucks recently held a contest (called “Project NU2”) to determine a new official entrance song to be played at the beginning of every game, which pitted Japandroids against Guns ‘n’ Roses, Volbeat, DJ Meg, Static in the Stars and, uh, Nickelback. But luckily, the good guys won — “The House That Heaven Built” is now the official song!
