Constellation Records (Canada)
Constellation Records is a Canadian independent record label based in Montreal, Quebec. It has released albums by many post-rock bands, including Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band and Do Make Say Think. Label philosophy The package of the Godspeed You! Black Emperor album '' Yanqui U.X.O.'' was especially noteworthy, containing an extensive chart which demonstrated the links between four major record labels— AOL Time-Warner, BMG, Sony, Vivendi Universal—and various arms manufacturers. The band later apologized for some extensions of the chart, conceding that some of their research had been inaccurate. On 25 February 2010, Constellation Records founders Ian Ilavsky and Don Wilkie signed, together with 500 artists, the call to support the international campaign for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israeli Apartheid. In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the label announced that the artists on its rost ...

Yanqui U
The term ''Yankee'' and its contracted form ''Yank'' have several interrelated meanings, all referring to people from the United States. Their various meanings depend on the context, and may refer to New Englanders, the Northeastern United States, the Northern United States, or to people from the US in general. Many of the earlier immigrants to the northeast from Ireland, Italy, Poland, and other regions of Europe, used ''Yankees'' to refer to New England English settlers. Outside the United States, ''Yank'' is used informally to refer to a person or thing from the US. It has been especially popular in the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand where it may be used variously, either with an uncomplimentary overtone, endearingly, or cordially. In the Southern United States, ''Yankee'' is a derisive term which refers to all Northerners, and during the American Civil War it was applied by Confederates to soldiers of the Union army in general.

Ceux Qui Inventent N'ont Jamais Vécu (?)
''Ceux qui inventent n'ont jamais vécu (?)'' ''(Those who invent have never lived (?))'' is the second album by Fly Pan Am. It was released by Constellation Records in April 2002. The album, as stated by Constellation Records, has a recurrent theme of "self-sabotage". Electronic noises and textures disrupt and often serve to confuse the listener; the track "Sound-support surface noises reaching out to you" includes sounds mimicking a skipping CD. Alexandre St-Onge, long-time contributor to Fly Pan Am, provides electronic manipulation for the second track. The recording also includes input and performances from many musicians, including David Bryant and Bruce Cawdron from Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Sam Shalabi from Shalabi Effect. The taping and mixing was done at the communal Montreal-based Hotel2Tango in 2001 by Thierry Amar and Efrim Menuck. The artwork was produced by the band members. The album title may refer to a sentence pronounced in Gil J. Wolman's film L'Anti ...
