After Constantines’ first visit to Meh-hee-ko (which we didn’t report because we have no confirmed Mexican readers), the band is presumably rushing back to North America to play to whiter audiences.

"I can’t wait for their return!" exclaims a pale-skinned TMT reader. "Their music says a lot about my race and the complex history from which I was born into."

The band starts up the tour tomorrow in Waterloo, supporting its latest full-length, Kensington Heights (TMT Review), perhaps one of the "whitest" permutations of rock released since Eric Clapton’s The Road to Escondido. Their most recent evidence of whiteness can be heard on the B-side of Constantines’ third 7-inch single, "Our Age": a cover of Neil Young’s "Fuckin’ Up."
