Reports have confirmed that, yes, Tegan and Sara are actually the illegitimate twin love-children of Sigourney Weaver and the alien from Alien.
They were abandoned near a Canadian orphanage in the early 1980s. They would go on to form a female hardcore band in 1996, fully capturing the essence of the era and genre
Later their image would evolve into something Spin Magazine found marketable as well as useful for gaining 'indie' 'cred.' (Two separate searchable keywords.)
And I'm glad there are very fews photos of what I looked like in 1996. Let's just say it involved Dickies, Adidas shell toes and a metal ball necklace (pictured above.) Had I splurged and bought the Adidas jacket I could have easily passed for the singer of Korn.
