Here’s another new CD release we’ve been looking forward to: “Wincing the Night Away” by The Shins. You might remember The Shins as Natalie Portman’s favorite band in the movie “Garden State.” Remember when Zac Braff meets her in the doctor’s waiting room and she gives him her headphones and says, “You gotta hear this one song—it’ll change your life, I swear”? That was The Shins.
Their new CD officially comes out next Tuesday, but a glitch on iTunes allowed a bunch of lucky folks (possibly including ourselves) to download it early. If you like your guitar-pop with soaring melodies and impossibly sharp hooks, every track here is worth 99 cents and then some. For a taste, you can download a track below.
