Here's Sloan's pop/rock sequel to the PACKED (30 song), hit-infested "Never Hear The End Of It". They've slimmed down the output, trimming the fatty tissue, leaving 13 tight jams, kicking off with the near-anthemic Believe In Me, slipping into the smooth harmonics of Cheap Champagne, and on with another Beatles-inflected album. It comes off as a classic pop album.
