Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - 8/16/01, p.105
3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Their pop songs jangle without being too sunny....These 11 songs whiz by in a gorgeous blur, over far too soon."
Q - May 2002, pp.119-121
3 out of 5 stars - "...The Shins fall into the folk category, focusing on hazy Beach Boys pop and swooning Simon & Garfunkel harmonies..."
CMJ - 8/01, p.89
"...Palpable, '60s-influenced jangle pop....one of the most consistently enjoyable takes on Brian Wilson..."
Mojo (Publisher) - 1/02, p.68
Ranked #14 in Mojo's "Best [40] Albums of 2001".
Mojo (Publisher) - 9/01, p.99
"...[Their] lovely jangly appeal is all their own..."
NME (Magazine) - 5/18/02, p.35
8 out of 10 - "...Evokes the shimmering coastlines and baked desertscapes of California with a vivid beauty seldom glimpsed since The Beach Boys hung up their surfboards..."
Paste (magazine) - "You can't help but buckle up when you here the fortified first words of 'Caring Is Creepy'....It's a superb introduction to the indie rock band's debut album, which remains a succinct and fresh listen almost 20 years later."
