Sad Dad Radio Hour

With Fall officially here, the guys examine Left and Leaving by Winnipeg mega-stars, The Weakerthans. It really is the perfect fall weather album. If you didn't know, the Weakerthan’s are fronted by John K. Sampson, who left his job as bassist for punk rockers, Propaghandi, to play much more introspective and emotional music. "Left and Leaving" sounds pretty much exactly how you’d expect a Canadian indie-rock album called “Left and Leaving” to sound. The lyrics are evocative, the melodies capture a certain cold-weather nostalgia, and the result is the kind of record that makes you enjoy being lonely. So sit back and relax, as we go over some crisp indie tunes.
