Listen:
So Jealous
by
Tegan and Sara
Tegan and Sara are twin sisters from Canada, and they've been around a while, but their latest album, So Jealous, is what's going to put them on the map. The new wave and pop hooks are what draw you in, but the more you listen, the better it gets. Plus, any album where Matt Sharp makes an appearance can't be bad. The timbre of their voices could easily come off as annoying, but once you get used to the folky melodies, it just becomes endearing. Full of heartbreaking lyrics with a sweet sound that doesn't devolve into sappiness, this album proves that pop music can still have depth. It's impossible not to sing along. This album will be my soundtrack to 2005.
