The Troubadour says…

Over the last few years, Canada has been a breeding ground for innovation, from the post-rock rambling of Godspeed You! Black Emperor to the indie anthemry of the Arcade Fire and Feist. Among the most recent leaders of the Canuck new wave are Constantines. Combining heavy riffs with sing-along choruses and a loud-quiet-loud jerkiness that could perk up the Pixies, this quintet has some of the rawest indie rock around. The onetime Sub Pop darlings return to LA tonight to deliver their tense-and-release rock — just in time for the descent into serious summer.
