The darlings of Canada's indie-rock scene, Sloan has spent the last 10 years churning out records that have had critics cooing and fans clamoring. While the band has never reached the mainstream sales success of fellow Canadian rock artists like Our Lady Peace or The Tea Party, they have managed to cultivate a dedicated following who are well-schooled on Sloan's tumultuous history and harmony-soaked hits. With the new record, Pretty Together, Sloan looks to continue its reign as masters of hooky rock anthems, but any previous formulas have been set aside as the veteran band decided to try new techniques for writing, recording and producing their sixth record.
