Canadian rock superstars Sloan have announced a limited edition run of their first-ever B-side collection.

Simply entitled B Sides Win Vol. 1 1992-1997, the collection includes nine songs, many of which have never been available on vinyl before. The run will be limited to 1200 copies on blue vinyl. Bandmate Jay Ferguson described the collection as being “not common for the B-side to rise to the occasion and compete one to one with the A-side and become a classic unto itself. “How Soon Is Now?” by The Smiths, “Fools Gold” by The Stone Roses and even “Maggie May” by Rod the Mod all first appeared as B-sides that were soon flipped over and given the acclaim that they deserved. Now, I don’t know if any of our songs on this vinyl collection B Sides Win Vol. 1 1992-1997 will go down in pop history like those dud (some just may, give them time!), yet I do like to think that we did out best to offer good musical value tracks on our B-sides, bonus tracks or extras.”
