The Great Detachment is the sixth album by Canadian indie rock band Wintersleep, released in 2016 on Dine Alone Records.
The album received its widest publicity for "Amerika", a single whose video painted a seemingly apocalyptic portrait of contemporary American life before cutting away to a clip from a campaign speech by Donald Trump, several months before the 2016 presidential election. The song was their biggest hit since "Weighty Ghost" in 2007, reaching #1 on Canada's Alternative and Rock charts.
The album was a shortlisted Juno Award finalist for Adult Alternative Album of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2017.

In the Land Of is the seventh album by Canadian indie rock band Wintersleep, released on March 19, 2019 through Dine Alone Records.
The band began working on the album a year after releasing their previous effort The Great Detachment. They teamed up with renowned producer Tony Doogan who also produced Welcome to the Night Sky and New Inheritors during months of 2018 and tracked the album at studios in Montreal, Kingston and Toronto.
The band released first single "Surrender" in late 2018, and the rest of the album's singles, "Beneficiary", "Forest Fire" and "In the Shape of Your Heart" followed in early 2019.
Following the album's release date, Dine Alone Records announced a limited issue of "splatter" coloured vinyl LPs for sale via their website.

Hello Hum is the fifth album by Canadian indie rock band Wintersleep, released on June 12, 2012.
The band started writing the album during the New Inheritors tour in 2010 and 2011, via "late
night voice memo'd bedroom demos, hallucinogenic dreams of Paul Schaeffer".
The group recorded the new songs in the late summer of 2011 with Scottish producer Tony Doogan, who had already produced their last effort New Inheritors, and Dave Fridmann, who had previously worked with such bands as The Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev, and MGMT.
