Power pop connoisseurs rejoice! Sloan have a brand new double album at the ready for September.
The latest offering from the never-not-fantastic Halifax rock vendors will feature each member of the group getting their own side. The four compartments of the double album, entitled Commonwealth, operates under its own playing card suit banner. We have the art for Commonwealth below so you can see Sloan in a poker-friendly format.
The album promises to "allow four members’ work to at last be heard through the prism of individual identity." With "Ferguson’s opening Diamond side showcases his remarkable knack for symphonic pop, Pentland’s Shamrock offers a substantial helping of pedal-hoppin’ psych rock, and Murphy’s Heart is fit to burst with wit, jangle, and eclectic energy."
Get a preview of Commonwealth's lead single, "Keep Swinging (Downtown)," below if you'd like to get a taste of what's to come. The new album appears in full on September 9.
