    Women Who Rock Right Now: No. 7

    Who: Tegan and Sara
    Birthplace: Calgary, Alberta
    Sound: Folk punk

    Tegan and Sara Quin are out and proud identical twin singer-songwriters from Canada. The two have released five albums of hearty folk-punk, and garnered mainstream attention after the White Stripes covered 'Walking With a Ghost,' off the sisters' album 'So Jealous' -- a record Rolling Stone named on their 50 Best Albums of 2004 list.

    I only thing I like about Tegan and Sara is that Tegan collaborated with Against Me!, and I want Tom Gabel's nuts.

    Tegan and Sara are amazing. If you haven't checked out their previous albums... you're missing out. I have never heard a song of theirs that's not absolutely brilliant!

    Why do I like these songs? I only listen to metal and hard-core! Guess it's time to expand my music collection and by some Teagan and Sara. My girl wouldn't even yell for me to turn it down.

    Tegan and Sara are examples of two exactly identical twin song writing failures. I assume they wrote the song on the AOL sample. The composition was also colder then a shirtness night in Alberta. Their voices, however, unlike the previous few (#'s 10, 9, 8 )have some hope --yes even in this lifetime.
