AllMusic[1]

Pretty Together is the sixth album by Canadian rock group Sloan. It was released on Murderecords in 2001. While it still has the 1960s and 1970s influences of Between the Bridges, it is more melancholy with fewer of the upbeat songs found on previous albums. "If It Feels Good Do It" and "The Other Man" were the two singles released from the album, with the latter being a melancholy plea by Chris Murphy which marked an outing from the usual upbeat songs Murphy provides the group with. The album debuted at #12 on the Canadian Albums Chart,[2] and both singles received notable radio airplay in Canada. The album was nominated for Best Rock Album at the 2002 Juno Awards.[3]
