This is a two piece female outfit from Vancouver. I discovered them back when iTunes had their free track of the week. They have six albums and two EP's. I believe you can get them all on vinyl as well. The first two they basically ignore as though they never existed, very different from what they currently write; today they are more of a garage-rock/punk White Stripes type band, before they were WAY more bluesy. I have seen them live a few times, and they never disappoint.

Tintype (2007)
Funeral Mixtape (2008)
We Kill Computers (2010)
Unpersons (2011)
Do Not Engage (2014)
Positive Thinking (2016)

EPs
Some Sssongs (2013) (vinyl only I believe-basically a 5 song sampler from 3 of their albums)
Meta Animal (2015) (a couple unreleased tracks)
