Sideways by Men Without Hats

Sideways is the fifth studio album by Canadian synthpop group Men Without Hats. Released on 30 April 1991, it featured a new sound based around electric guitars instead of the group's normal use of synthesizers. It was the second album to be recorded at Hudson Studios in New York and produced by bassist Stefan Doroschuk, with Mike Scott as co-producer. Despite the group's insistence that guitars were the wave of the future, the album failed to attract an American label and was released only in Canada and Japan, although there are many imports that have made their way to American, European and Australian shelves.
