The Weakerthans

Label: Epitaph
Genre: Pop, Punk, Rock

In light of the recent discussion in Wisconsin to legalize cat hunting (if you haven't heard about this, check here), it seems appropriate to post The Weakerthans, whose "Plea From a Cat Named Virtute" is actually told from the perspective of a cat. Katherine slipped me a disc of their melodic Canadian punk/pop, replete with a little steel guitar here and some blazing noise there, and it's been the only rotation in my car's CD player for a few weeks now. As for the licensed hunting of feral cats, it seems like The Weakerthans would likely not approve. To my knowledge, 3hive has no official position on the matter.
