To be fair, Tegan & Sara have been largely inconsistent. That said I love Sainthood, The Con, So Jelaous, and This Business of Art quite a lot.

Oh and thanks Gowi for the rec... I'm spinning it now and it possibly is my favorite overall work of theirs. Pretty consistently "good" stuff. The two albums I'm kind of familiar with were a bit too all over the place for me.

I was talking about this song from 2016:

That album I don't think I've heard.

Thinking out loud:

Also I'm realizing my charts consist of albums I think all the songs on the album are good to great.

What this means is most of my charts are boring. They are filled with artists who often played it safe in the good zone. It is a tight line to walk... sometimes an artist will be like Britney Spears and then they decide they want to be Artists and come out with a record where they step on cats in artistic ways and release that.

Anyway, reviewing my own list, it's pretty average to good, just like the albums on it... hahaha.

At the same time it really begs the question of what a good album is, doesn't it. Does for me at least. I think when I did this chart I was looking for music compared to others that:

1) had that bittersweet pop appeal - so not full on pop music, but music that was readily accessible and connected immediately

2) Intriguing mentally at some kind of level

3) had some kind of heart/emotional connection

Well if that's all you are looking for, that can be boring. But isn't it more personal? Idk. Who cares.

aay chart of the day. crazy to see so much overlap with 19-yr-old me.

what's this The Anniversary though? never heard of it. is it as psychotically gleeful as the cover makes it out to be?

and what ever became of Tegan & Sara? they still 'round?

The Anniversary: kind of... guitars vocals, and synthesizers rhythms are often disoriented, yet not nearly as bad as other music out there.

And probably very true about my 19 year old self. I'm pretty sure I never properly matured.

Tegan and Sarah went full on pop and less interesting in my opinion.
