Entertainment Reviews:
Rolling Stone - 12/25/03, p.110
Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Best Albums of 2003"Rolling Stone - 11/13/03, p.94
4 stars out of 5 - "...The Shins...have not only assimilated several decades of Brit rock, chamber pop, and DIY punk but have nonchalantly slipped those influences into their own intricate yet durable musical designs..."Spin - 12/03, p.133
"...The Shins are reverent and reverential, practically documenting their source material with footnotes..." - Grade: BEntertainment Weekly - 12/26/03-1/2/04, p.140
Ranked #4 in Entertainment Weekly's 2003 "Records of the Year" - "...[The band is] sharp enough to set Mercer's radiant tunes and keening, affectless voice to the crispest and meatiest of indie rock."Q - 4/04, p.120
4 stars out of 5 - "[I]ntelligent, melodic and offbeat - without falling into the trap of being goofy. Have indie rock's saviours arrived?"Uncut - 4/04, p.107
4 stars out of 5 - "10 perfect songs constructed from wit, electricity and the broken bones of the heart."Uncut - p.76
Ranked #39 in Uncut's "Best New Albums of 2004" - "[With] killer melodies that were as voluptuous as they were wholly original."Magnet - 11/03, p.109
"...A sonically bolder production with fewer effects and more hooks per square inch than a flyrod factory..."CMJ - 11/3/03, p.9
"...Making for perfect mixtape material, the quartet now returns with a quieter sophomore effort--one that suits the hunger for a soft, melodic album to provide comfort in the privacy of bedroom listening..."Mojo (Publisher) - 4/04, p.98
5 stars out of 5 - "An existential obstacle course. A meditation on the ineffable mysteries of love. An incredible pop record. The second album by The Shins is all this and more....It's a tour de force of concision..."Tracks:
- 1.Kissing the Lipless
- 2.Mine's Not a High Horse
- 3.So Says I
- 4.Young Pilgrim
- 5.Saint Simon
- 6.Fighting in a Sack
