Biografia:
A banda Weakerthans foi formada em 1997, em Winnipeg , Manitoba por John K. Samson , depois que ele deixou a banda de hardcore Propagandhi. John se juntou com o baixista John P. Sutton e o baterista Jason Tait , ambos de Winnipeg, e criaram o Weakerthans, com um som mais melódico e uma forma introspectiva de composição que seus projetos anteriores.
A história da origem do nome da banda, como citado no encarte de Fallow menciona, é uma quota do filme de 1992 "The Lover"( "Go ahead, I'm weaker than you can possibly imagine.

Sun in an Empty Room by The Weakerthans
Intro:
A E B F#m (x2) (this pattern repeats throughout the song)
A E B F#m
Now that the furniture’s returning to its goodwill home
A E B F#m
Dishes and last week’s paper, rumors and elections, crosswords, and an ending war
A E B F#m
the black our fingers smeared their prints on every door pulled shut
A E B F#m
now that the last month’s rent is scheming with the damage deposit
A E
take this moment to decide (sun in an empty room)
B F#m
if we meant it, if we tried (sun in an empty room)
A E
or felt around for far too much (sun in an empty room)
B F#m
for things that accidentally touched (sun in an empty room)
(chord pattern repeats to end)
the hands that we nearly hold with pennies for the gst
the shoulders we lean our shoulders into on the subway, mutter an apology
the shins that we kick beneath the table, that reflexive cry
the faces we meet one awkward beat too long and terrified
know the things we need to say (sun in an empty room)
and said already anyways (sun in an empty room)
on parallelograms of light (sun in an empty room)
on walls that we repainted white (sun in an empty room)
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
sun in an empty room
take eight minutes and divide (sun in an empty room)
by ninety million lonely miles (sun in an empty room)
watch the shadow cross the floor (sun in an empty room)
we don’t live here anymore (sun in an empty room)
