On September 9th, the Toronto-based quartet Sloan will release their 11th studio album Commonwealth via Yep Roc Records. The 15-song collection sees Sloan creating one of the most unique and ambitious recordings of their two-decade-plus career. The Toronto-based rock quartet is perhaps the most truly democratic group in the annals of pop, with Jay Ferguson, Chris Murphy, Patrick Pentland, and Andrew Scott all contributing original compositions to each record, equal partners with equal say over every aspect of their work. Where in the past creative lines have been blurred to create the multi-faceted Sloan sound, Commonwealth sees the four bandmates disassociating ever so slightly to create an old-school double album sequenced with each member staking out a single side as their own artistic dominion.
