I've been holding on to this for the better part of two weeks. I apologize. I'm very, very selfish.
Three years ago I woke up to my alarm clock radio playing the greatest song I'd never heard, Walking with a Ghost, by Tegan and Sara. I won't go into their life story, all you need to know is they're twins, they're Canadian, and they kick ass. After hearing that track I rushed out and bought the album So Jealous (Amazon) as well as their 2002 release If It Was You (Amazon). There were some really stand out tracks on both albums, but (at least for me) they weren't the kind of albums I would listen to straight through, and surely not repeatedly. Their upcoming release, The Con has certainly changed all that. I can't stop listening to it. All the way through. All the time. I play it at home, I play it in the car. It's bloody fantastic! I can't wait to get my non-digital hands on it when it releases on July 24th. Until then, here are a couple of my favourite tracks to wet your pallets. Enjoy

All is forgiven since you did give it to me before releasing it to the general public.
Also, it's fantastic!
