Keep up the great work guys and I look forward to hearing of more updates and seeing some Sloantastic photographs very soon!

I might actually be away by then headed off to school, but if I'm not, OH MAN. We will party.

Sloan! New album! These three words in combination make me a very happy fan. I hope this is the tour on which I will actually get to see you guys for the first time. ALL-AGES! ;)

i think the new album is always like a LOVE LETTER from Sloan.
always make me happy.
but this year, will you come across the sea to DATE Japanese fans again in 4 years?

PLEASE SAY YES!!!

the Sloan's gig (yeah, date with Sloan) is always GREAT!
We still love sloan. REALLY!!!

Take care and keep the updates coming.

Tell Jay that Haley would love to finally meet him in person. He's her fav. Personally I'm fond of all the guys.

Thanks, Mike.

Good to hear things are still progressing, thanks for the update Mr. Mike.

(And give poor Mariko her Sloan Japan already!!!)

And yes, a trip to Japan is in order!

Can't wait to see the tour dates and hear the new album live!

Too many exclamation marks . . . thanks, Mike.

Also, when do we see a Murph/Andrew drum off? "It's been a long time coming".

thanks.

*Jay, "I thought I was ready for you" is a brilliant song!
*Chris, it's so nice of you to support Nardwuar's DVD Release Launch!

Yes! We are still waiting for SLOAN to come to Japan!!
Please set the date for Japan tour this year!
PLEASE!!

There's been a big musical void in my life for the past 3 years. I really need some new Sloan. This is great news!

And...please stop skipping Saint John when you tour Atlantiic Cnada. We are the largest market in New Brunswick (and have the most vibrant music scene in the province)!

You have to be registered with iTunes (free) and have the iTunes software on your computer in order to download it (yesterday, it was free... today?).

Yes, you noticed the sad smilie. My heart's broken. Up until "Try to Make It", I was a dyed-in-the-wool Sloan fan. I'm hoping it's a non-album track, and not the first single. Remembering the shock upon hearing "Money City Maniacs" the first time after thoroughly enjoying the "Twice Removed", "One Chord to Another" and "Songs Recorded Live at a Sloan Party!" albums, only to seriously warm up to it on repeated listens, I hoped my initial feeling would pass when I would hear it more than once. Maybe it's just me. I'm hoping it's just me.

Sorry guys, I can't cheer for you on this one. Still, I wish you the best, and I'm hoping my discomfort is only a one-song thing, after the addictive Action Pact.

Not counting anything coming out around the new album (and presuming "...Sloan Party!" remains unreleased by itself in North America), there is enough _previously_ _released_ B-sides, bonus tracks, and scattered demoes/non-album tracks to fill 2 80-minute CD's, or four vinyl... and this was counted back in the "Pretty Together" days. Only two tracks in my tally aren't credited to Sloan: "Guidance Counsellor" and "Gimme the Keys". And only one hasn't appeared anywhere: "Snowsuit Sound (demo)" (originally slated for "Les Amis du Sloan" cassette release). Talk about something being "a long time coming".

Last played: Utopia - "Utopia". Great stuff if you're a fan of the more pop-radio-friendly Sloan side. Just thought I'd throw that in.
