What about SubPop? There should be some mention of SubPop.

This page states Action Pact is their Ninth Album whereas the Action Pact page says it is their ninth album. Not sure which is correct, but this should be fixed.

Sorry the Action Pact page says it is their seventh album.

Well, not counting Peppermint (which is an EP, not a full album), and the live album, Action Pact is the seventh. Adam Bishop 05:37, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Impact

Shouldn't there be some mention of the "Halifax is the next Seattle" sentiment, which persisted for some years (I believe Spin mentioned it several times) following the decline of Grunge? 66.46.152.30 19:22, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Songwriting Credits

How about adding songwriting credits to the album pages? Anyone up for it? DiggyG 05:13, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Band Formation

Chris and Jay started Sloan, didn't they? They were both in Kearney Lake Road and if I'm remembering correctly Andrew was the last to join the band. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.234.106.114 (talk) 21:32, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
