is obviously The Weakerthans. And I've been waiting for what feels like ages for new music to satisfy my addiction. Finally, it's here! The band's new single, Civil Twilight, was released just the other day and I couldn't be more thrilled! It's a little bit more upbeat and pop-rocky than their usual fare but in no way is that a bad thing. For starters, it's catchy as hell (in a good way) and John

For starters, I've been listening to this album nonstop since it came out this week. It's incredible beyond all description and, in my opinion, Rufus' very very best album to date. His trademark orchestral swells are all over this album but in a lot of ways it seems more ambitious than some of his previous releases. Every song on the album is great and worth repeated listens but I'll give you a br
