As previously reported, Sloan's Murderecords imprint is celebrating its 21st anniversary with a book release detailing the label's first 12 7-inches. On top of including digital downloads of cuts from the likes of Thrush Hermit, Eric's Trip and Local Rabbits, the release comes with a new 7-inch of material from East Coast supergroup the Certain Someones. You can hear the record's "Sad Salvation" now via Exclaim.ca.
A snippet of the song was revealed last week in a trailer, which quickly showcased the cotton-candy vocal harmonies of the project, featuring Sloan's Chris Murphy, the Super Friendz' Matt Murphy and Jale's Jennifer Pierce.
As a whole, the track plays into British Invasion conventions, with the lead lick sounding somewhat like the Who's "I Can't Explain" and Chris Murphy's rowdy drum fills thudding out à la Keith Moon.
The book will be sold at Sloan's upcoming June 14 performance at the Toronto's Great Hall as part NXNE. The night will also feature a set from the Super Friendz, who will also have the first-ever vinyl pressing of their 1995 debut Mock Up, Scale Down for sale.
