Sainthood



Sainthood by Tegan & Sara
Cd Bins - Rock - T


One of the best concerts I have ever been to was one of Tegan and Sara's. There is an energy and emotion they have that most bands today lack. Their 2007 album, The Con, is what made me get into them, but their newest album, Sainthood, is just spectacular. It’s not as depressing and emotional as The Con; it really shows how they have grown. Tegan and Sara still sing about relationships and love, but their lyrics are a bit more abstract on this album. Sainthood also shows how they are in a good place in their lives right now. While working on and writing songs for The Con, both Tegan and Sara were going through some tough times; either trying to work through relationships or ending them. The awesome thing about Tegan and Sara is that they are one of the few groups these days who is continuously evolving and putting out a better record than the one before.

After listening to the album several times all the way through, I can say that there isn’t a bad song on here. I recommend not only checking out Sainthood, but also The Con and So Jealous; all of which are available at the library.

Here is the song Hell off their Sainthood album:




To get a taste of The Con album, here is the song Back in Your Head:
