Tegan And Sara Release '90s-Inspired 'I'll Be Back Someday' Video

Tegan and Sara dropped the music video for their new single "I'll Be Back Someday" this week and it's '90s heaven.
The video comes a little over a month after the duo first dropped the lyric video for the new song; which is the first single off their forthcoming album, Hey, I'm Just Like You (out September 27). "In this video we really wanted to capture the disruption and manic multitasking we all do now because of our cell phones," they explained on Twitter. "The phone on the wall is a physical representation of the constant pull to this device we all have."
As represented in the video, Tegan and Sara can be seen totally decked out in '90s gear (but they, of course, make it look so good) anxiously sitting around a waiting room expecting a call. The sisters explained the message behind the video in another tweet stating it's about: "The anxiety of waiting for a message, waiting for a call, checking to see if people have posted, checking to see what our friends are doing, checking to see how many likes we have."
Like all of the songs on the album, "I'll Be Back Someday" is based on material the twin sisters wrote and recorded during their time in high school and then re-recorded the songs this year. In addition to the nostalgic album, the sisters are also releasing a memoir titled High School and it'll be published the same week as the album comes out.
