"Tegan and I are both writing furiously for the next record," Sara Quin recently told Spinner.com. "I have always felt like I was squeezing songs out of me slowly, but lately I've been writing a lot. We recently played a show with Death Cab for Cutie, where we talked with [guitarist/producer] Chris Walla, who worked on our last record [2007's The Con]. We're pretty much signed up to work on our next record with him again."

The sisters also revealed that they're planning to put out another DVD – their third to date – this summer. "Instead of shooting a live concert, we'll do something lo-fi and kinda punk rock – doing stripped-down versions of the songs – in an environment with lots of questions and answers, probably at the end of June in a secret Canadian city," Tara said. "We're hoping that we can release it along with an audio CD of all The Con demo versions that Tegan and I recorded by ourselves. It'll be very directed at fans but hopefully very cool."

As for the True Colors tour, expect Tegan and Sara to be significantly shaking up their set and tailoring it to the tour's crowd.

"We're gonna strip it all down and do pretty much alternative versions of everything," Sara said. "It could end up being really cool or a disaster. I want to give this crowd a different look at us – to have people hear the songs in a different way."
