Got it last week and saw them in Madison on Sunday night. I've given it a few listens and it seems to have a straglehold on me right now. I thought it was interesting that the keyboards on the album were done by ex-Weezer bassist Matt Sharp.
Pretty straight forward pop goodness, which is usually right up my alley. Also thought it was interesting that they are on Niel Young's label, Vapor.
Let me know what you guys think.

www.teganandsara.com

Check out "Walking with a Ghost" and "I Know, I Know, I Know" off of "So Jealous". Those two songs made me buy it.

Bought it; sold it in a hurry. It's a frothy piece of shit. Painfully naive lyrics and chirpy little girl vocals, but it could find its niche with the Avril demographic.

Yea my boy up here feels the same way I think. Which I can totally understand. May turn into one of those albums I listen to when no one is around I guess. And then totally deny even listening to when their video shows up on VH1. But until then...
