Feels like it’s about time for a new Shins record, doesn’t it?

Song removed by request.
Here’s an appology song to anyone who got their hopes up.

MP3: The Shins – Strange Powers (Magnetic Fields)

MP3: The Shins – Australia
“Australia” is a killer song, full of everything that made you fall in love with the Shins in the first place, mixed with a couple new treats. James Mercer still has a rapid rate of delivery for his verbose, poetic lyrics and their songs still float happilly along. In fact, if the video for “Australia” doesn’t have a young couple running in a sunlit spring field, they’re missing out because this is one time when a leak kills the experience of an album: this isn’t winter music. This is what they’ll play in young-spring-love montages for years to come.

When the preoder comes, it will be here.
