What are you making of the Shins so far?

Listened to that Early Years album on the train this morning Rich. Really enjoyed it - not what I was expecting but a pleasant suprise all the same.

There certainly is a split opinion on it. In terms of me being a huge Shins fan I think the tracks 1-5 (yeah I love Sea Legs) are faultless. Though it does loose momentum a little from there, in all I think its a great album that I will definately give repeated plays to for a long time to come.

Aint That Enough - Teenage Fanclub.

One of the few albums I never get bored of.

I think ill grab that later and give it a spin. n.p:

Is this one youve got? I just found it up on Oink: The Stone Roses - In The Studio 2 (Second Coming Rehersals) 1. Ian & Reni Recording Water For Breaking Into Heaven Intro 2. Producer Giving Instructions/John In Background 3. Alternate Ten Storey Love Song Intro 4. John/Reni: The Tribal Jam 1 5. Good Times 6. Love Spreads 7. Love Spreads 2 8. Begging You 9. John/Reni: Jam 2 10. Daybreak (JB Groove) 11. Reni Solo 1 12. Tightrope 13. John/Reni: The Funky Jam 14. Breaking Into Heaven 15. Driving South 16. John/Reni: The Crazy Jam 17. How Do You Sleep 18. Reni Solo 2 The Paul Schroeder

Is that the hard to find set on songs that is the holy grail to Roses fans? Or am I getting confused with something else?

The Shins - Wincing The Night Away Is there any artwork for this yet?

Was playing this over the weekend, 80% of it is really really good. I think Ryan did a pretty good job on it.

Sounds interesting.

All over it IMO. Ive listened to it shed loads and have gotten over the new album syndrome that sometimes clouds my vision. I absolutely love it - maybe even better than Chutes To Narrow.

Was just about to listen to that again. Had it on this morning on the way into work. Great album!

Ah - not really. I copied and replaced from your post, so must have left that one out by accident. Next up on shuffle would have been..... Wake Up - Rage Against The Machine
