The Double Cross

VINYL FORMAT. Following their most critically-acclaimed albums to date - SPIN called Never Hear The End Of It "the best British Invasion best-of you've never heard," and Pitchfork called Parallel Play "almost flawless" - Canadian pop iconoclasts Sloan are ready to celebrate. Their recent albums would be reason enough, but 2011 marks the twentieth anniversary of the band, and how better to honor such an occasion than a brand new album prolific with power pop gems? Sloan delivers just that with their 10th album The Double Cross, a titular shout-out to the band's 20th (or XX) anniversary. Raise your glasses to Jay, Patrick, Chris, Andrew and 20 years of Sloan. Here's to 20 more!
