Description
The first pressing of the Constantines self-titled (and Juno Award-nominated) debut (released on Three Gut Records in 2001 and re-released outside of Canada on Sub Pop in 2004) was fittingly packaged so that, upon opening the red cardstock booklet, youd find a single strike-anywhere match.
This from Magnet magazine: Theyre young offenders with sharpened teeth who make grinding, literate punk with the elasti-to-explosive guitars heard on Fugazis Smallpox Champion, the stark lyrical economy of a Vonnegut-penned newspaper obituary and The Constantines are old souls in young bodies guys in their early 20s who sound like Joe Strummer backed by Fugazi making music that wakes the sleeping and the dead.
Shine A Light was the Constantines second full length and their first for Sub Pop.
This 11th anniversary vinyl reissue includes a bonus 7 featuring tracks from the Nighttime and Young Lions CD singles.
LP includes MP3 coupon.
