Sloan

"Carried Away"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Aug 11, 2014

Sloan have already rolled out a couple previews from their four-way album, Commonwealth, and have now shown us yet another ace up their sleeve with the unveiling of the Chris Murphy-penned "Carried Away."

Reflecting the Heart portion of the LP, Murphy's subtle pop-rocker brings a series of low-key organ lines, finger snaps and sophisticated string harmonies to a song about trying to get over a difficult period. "It's waking up without him that's upsetting," Murphy sings of the track's lead character, whom he offers consoling words and a couch to sleep on while she gets herself back together.
