| dbo:abstract | Reconstruction Site is the third studio album by The Weakerthans, released on August 26, 2003. A song cycle about grief, regret, loss and eventual hope, the album is thematically framed by three tracks, "(Manifest)", "(Hospital Vespers)" and "(Past-Due)", which set three different sonnets following a terminally ill hospital patient into the aftermath of his death to the same melody. Other songs examine the album's themes from different angles: "Plea from a Cat Named Virtute" is written from the perspective of a depressed person's cat, "One Great City!" is about Samson's love–hate relationship with his hometown of Winnipeg, and "Our Retired Explorer" imagines a dinner date between philosopher Michel Foucault and a hopelessly nostalgic member of Ernest Shackleton's expedition to Antarctica. Guest musicians on the album include Sarah Harmer and Christine Fellows. The album's cover art was designed by Canadian artist and fellow Winnipegger Marcel Dzama. The song "One Great City!" serves as the theme song to the Canadian television comedy-drama series Less Than Kind. In 2013, the album made Ballast's list of top 50 Canadian albums of all time. (en) Reconstruction Site è un album del 2003 dei Weakerthans. Un ciclo di canzoni che parlano di tristezza, rimpianti e perdite: l'album è tematicamente incorniciato da tre tracce, "(Manifest)", "(Hospital Vespers)" e "(Past-Due)", che accolgono con la stessa melodia tre diversi sonetti su un malato terminale in ospedale. Altri brani esaminano i temi del disco da diversi punti di vista: "Plea From a Cat Named Virtute" è scritta dalla prospettiva del gatto di un depresso; "One Great City!" tratta la relazione di amore-odio tra Samson e la sua città natale, Winnipeg; infine, in "Our Retired Explorer" si immagina una cena tra Michel Foucault ed un membro nostalgico della spedizione di Ernest Shackleton in Antartide. Sarah Harmer e hanno partecipato alla realizzazione dell'album. Per la copertina si deve ringraziare l'artista canadese, anch'egli di Winnipeg, . Su Amazon.com sono stati resi disponibili al download gli MP3 di "Plea From a Cat Named Virtute" e del brano che dà il titolo all'album.
