Review: Tegan + Sara – “The Con”

Product: Album: The Con By: Tegan + Sara
Website: Tegan + Sara.com
Purchased at: Target
MSRP: Probably around $15 ($9.99 on itunes) I Paid: $10.99
Pros: I really don’t have a strong grasp on their previous work, so I got to come into “The Con” with fresh ears. That being the case, I now know the words to almost every phrase on the record, and there is something… a beat, a lyric, a melody-SOMETHING I love on every track.
Cons: Their voices took me about 3 full album spins to get used to. They do not have “typically beautiful” voices… but the tone of their voices really almost isn’t even the point. It is a whole package thing with them, it is about their voice, singing those words, to that tune, over certain chords…
Rating: [rating:4.5/5]

This is my new favorite record…. and this is my new absolute favorite song:
