@Drew Beringer please keep going! Heartthrob was my AOTY when it came out so I'm am way too hyped for LY2D
@Drew Beringer is there anything along the lines of Now I'm All Messed Up or Shock To Your System emotional punch wise?
At the show last night, from the new album they played Stop Desire, U-Turn, Boyfriend, and 100x. Tegan mentioned that Stop Desire and 100X should be released in the next week or so. 100x was my favorite of the new songs. Sara completely sells her pain. The fact that the song is about her relationship with Tegan adds an interesting layer to the lyrics. It's interesting the direction they are going with their live sound. Tegan played guitar for three songs (Call It Off, Where Does the Good Go, and The Con), while Sara barely strummed a guitar for Now I'm All Messed Up. And they only had two other band members- a drummer and keyboardist. The majority of the pre-Hearththrob songs have been remixed to adhere to their new sound.
Interesting that they played nothing off Sainthood. It always seems to get a bum deal in their setlists.
Ya I realized there was no Sainthood love at the end of the night. People were shouting for The Ocean during the encore, but Tegan scoffed at the thought of playing it. And Tegan also offered a choice between The Con or On Directing which was just a set-up since she knew The Con would be the popular vote.
I think both are better than the singles we have so far. What's wrong with The Ocean? That song is amazing.
I meant if they end up releasing a 4th one ("Stop Desire") this week as well, which is almost half the album.
Great song! I'm loving all these. But yes, I'm torn between wanting more and wanting to wait for the full album.
Yeah I feel like I don't really understand what they are doing with the vids. I like the music tho, so I guess that's all that matters.
ANOTHER song out! Hear Tegan and Sara’s New Song “Stop Desire” | Pitchfork They really will have the whole thing out there soon at this rate.
