Sloan
One Chord to Another
Album · Rock · 1996
A true power-pop gem, One Chord to Another showcases Sloan's ability to meld melodic songcraft with scrappy punk energy for a dozen breathless tracks. From the lo-fi chaos of "The Good in Everyone" and the shaggy rocker "D Turns to G", to the gentle strum and handclaps of "The Lines You Amend", to the tart trumpet blasts of "Everything You've Done Wrong", these cuts sparkle with crisp guitar hooks and clever lyrics. Sloan's four singer/songwriters are all at the top of their game here.
