Underwhelmed
"Underwhelmed" is the debut single by Canadian alternative rock band Sloan. The song was originally released on the DTK Records compilation Hear and Now '92: The Best Of The East Coast's Independent in 1992 and was later included on the band's debut EP, Peppermint. A music video was released of the Peppermint version. The song was re-recorded for the band's debut full-length album, Smeared, and was released as the album's lead single. The song is the band's best-charted single outside Canada, peaking at #25 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart in 1993.
Sloan's Chris Murphy says the song's lyrical approach was influenced by "Political Song for Michael Jackson to Sing", a song by Minutemen on their 1984 album, Double Nickels on the Dime.
