Synopsis

Album Description
This is the domestic release of the Canadian band's 2001 debut, which was nominated for a Best Alternative Album Juno. It's an excellent companion piece to their second effort, "Shine A Light". Musically, the blueprint has changed very little: dub-inflected DC post-hardcore by way of Strummer and Springsteen.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Apparently, this is a re-release of the Constantine's first eponymous CD, and I can't understand how I missed it the first time. This CD deserves much more notice, especially the songs Young Offenders (a new anthem for aging punks) and Arizona (whatever happened to SST?). Forget your art-school indie pop cleverness, these guys are straight-forward yet intelligent, raw and polished at the same time, and compare favorably with some heavy-hitters from the archives - Husker Du, the Replacements, and the Minutemen. Passion, energy, emotion, beauty, power, wisdom. What else? They ROCK!"
