Mine is "Exiles Among You," but there are seven or eight perfect songs on here and four or five that are almost as good. I might have to 5 this

I'm 5'ing this. There are a couple tracks that aren't quite as heart-wrenchingly awesome as the others, but I would look anyone in the eye and tell that person they need to listen to this before they die - and if that doesn't make this a classic album, then what does?

Jamming this on repeat all night in memoriam :'(



EDIT: actually that's a lie, I still need to hear their other albums (especially Reconstruction Site) and this is a better night than ever

Word is getting out that The Weakerthans are done. Here's the song we used to take the stage to for years. Bye bye. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iqUzjilJzSY …

thnx. sad as hell but at this stage i'd be just as psyched for a new john album as i would be for a new weakerthans. however john isn't writing much material atm either.

they were on indefinite hiatus as far as anyone knew cuz all of em wanted to hang out with their families and stuff but there seemed to be a chance of them getting back together.

also the band never really "broke up" cuz john thinks that's dumb; they just kinda fizzled out until they were done
