The Weakerthans – Reunion Tour

Posted by jarrodperreault on December 20, 2007

Type: Canadian Rock

Good Tracks:
5. “Virtute the Cat Explains Her Departure” – 4:08
7. “Sun in an Empty Room” – 4:00

2 fun songs, alot of not so memorable songs. “Sun in an Empty Room” has fantastic guitar work and is very much worth hearing. Track 5 is a continuation of a song from an earlier album and is much better than the first one. If you already like The Weakerthans then check it out.

Wintersleep – Welcome to the Night Sky

Posted by jarrodperreault on October 16, 2007

Type: Canadian Rock

Good Tracks:
1. “Drunk on Aluminum”
2. “Archaeologists”
3. “Dead Letter & the Infinite Yes”
4. “Weighty Ghost”
6. “Search Party”
7. “Astronaut”

Could’ve been better, and definitely (i never knew how to spell definitely till now) not as good as their previous release. “Drunk On Aluminum” sounds like a complete ripoff of the song “Sine Wave” by Mogwai, and that is just stupid, but also what makes it decent. My favorite is track 3 and track 6 is also pretty sweet. “Astronaut” seems to be growing on me.

Wintersleep (2003)

Posted by jarrodperreault on May 31, 2007

Type : Canadian Rock

Good Tracks:
10. assembly lines

Only one good song on this release :-( . Not nearly as good as
their later album in 2005. Maybe thats a good thing. This is also
a self titled album, same as their next release. It’s kind of a dumb
idea.
