The Shins

Post by Keverian FireCry »

Any fans of The Shins? My friend recently turned me on to them and Ive bought both their albums and can't stop listening to them. If you wanna search out some songs, hmm I like a lot of em.

Pick a few of these to search and download.
"So Says I" ; "Saint Simon", "Gone For Good""One by One All Day" ; "New Slang; "Turn a Square"; "Kissing The Lipless"; "

Hell just DL the whole album, they have a good range of style between their songs, Im sure you can find something you like. Im not sure how to describe them or what bands they are like, so I used MusicPlasma and Amazon, so heres some bands they were close to:

Radiohead, The Smiths, Fountains of Wayne, The Strokes, Belle and Sebastian, Nick Drake, The New Pornographers, Iron and Wine...../shrug

I personally think a couple songs remind me of earlier Beach Boys or Brian Wilsons solo shit.

As I said they have a good range, some songs are slow some are up-beat rock. All in all they make some really good music. Check em out

The Shins are really good, I was hoping eMusic.com would have Chutes Too Narrow but alas, they do not. =(
