It's taking some time, but Tegan and Sara's latest record is slowly growing on me. It's not as immediately catchy and radio-friendly as Heartthrob or as angsty and dark as their older albums like The Con, but it's somehow more honest and heartfelt than a lot of their previous efforts while still feeling buoyant and poppy. They used to hide behind a lot of veiled lyrics, not wanting to offend anyone, not wanting to mention specifics, but Love You to Death is blunt, personal, and getting everything out in the open — it seems like they just want to let the past go, and finally start a new chapter.
