Aww, come on. You know you love The Shins.
Don't give me any of that "dude, the Garden State soundtrack is, like, so 2005'" crap. You know The Shins are so much more than Zach Braff's most favoritist band ever. Just listen to the band's new single below, and look at that photo up there, it's fucking hilarious. It has nothing to do with their music or their "image." They're just dickin' around up there. Look at that.
Anyway,The Shins camp reports that the band's third album Wincing the Night Away will be out Jan. 23 on Sub Pop. Wincing was produced by the band's frontman, James Mercer, as well as Joe Chiccarelli (Beck, U2).
"Phantom Limb," the upcoming album's first single, again features James Mercer's sharp vocals front-and-center, backed by a subtle but undeniably catchy arrangement. Dowload it below, courtesy of Sub Pop, and check the Max Fischer-esque video. Buy the "Phantom Limb" mini EP here.
