15 Second Record Review - Sainthood by Tegan and Sara


Sainthood marks Tegan and Sara's sixth full-length effort, and easily their most disappointing album since 2002's If It Was You . T&S is a singles band that can produce top-notch ear worm/candy pop hits.

They may never make another So Jealous , but I'd be happy enough with another The Con . Instead, we get 13 tracks of filler. The first single, Arrow, is simply annoying. This band is capable of a lot more.  C-
