September 13, 200619 yr The Shins have some greeeaaat stuff and I really love this new album of theirs.
October 17, 200619 yr The Shins Reveal Wincing the Night Away Tracklist Lives, get ready to be changed all over again. Pacific Northwest upstarts the Shins have just announced the tracklist to their insanely- anticipated third full-length, Wincing the Night Away. The 11-song set follows up the quite-well- received Chutes Too Narrow and was recorded this summer at Oregon City's Supernatural Sound, with main Shin James Mercer and dude-about-town Joe Chiccarelli (Beck, Tori Amos, Jonathan Richman, U2) co-helming the production chair. As previously reported, Wincing the Night Away (which, by the way, sounds like an extremely unpleasant activity) hits the streets January 23 thanks to the fabulous people at Sub Pop Records. We'll all be, er, wincing the nights away in anticipation of that date, oh yes. To keep the young Braffians out there thoroughly stoked, the Shins will release Wincing's first single, "Phantom Limb", in three different formats on three different dates. Pencils ready: iTunes digital on November 14, CD on November 21, and 7" on December 12. The single comes with two exclusive, non-album B-sides, one of them an alternate version of Wincing cut "Split Needles". The tracklists are just a clicky-click away, my friends. And look! A tune named after veteran indie pop darling Pam Berry! Swell! The Shins headline Sub Pop's CMJ Showcase, going down November 2 at New York's Bowery Ballroom.

October 25, 200619 yr it's a good album. but still doesn't hit the Chutes Too Narrow level, imo btw Pam Berry is brilliant! i wish they'd go in that direction, well probably
