The Weakerthans "Reconstruction Site" Voted Album of the Year by The Indpendent (UK)!!!
"Reconstruction Site," The year's shiniest pop nugget comes from this Winnipeg quartet's third effort which showcases songwriter John K Samson's intricate, literary lyricism, steeped here in subtle political metaphors and life-affirming analysis, with a tiny punk edge left over from his former band, Propagandi. Set to a variety of melodies and tempos, it stands up to an infinite number of plays. Album of the year.
