Acadian powerpop trio Sluice presents a history lesson, a love letter to home, and a fist-pumping banger with Archiviste, the most fun you could possibly have learning about niche Nova Scotian Acadian history while soaking in your 1990s nostalgia—Gin Blossoms on speed (but make it nerdy).
Written on the heels of a series of research residencies at the Argyle Township Court House and Archives in Tusket digging through hundreds of years of newspapers, manuscripts, property records, and photos, the album presents a collection of stories that document a largely unknown past anchored in the oldest Acadian region in the whole world.
