The last time The Shins put out an album the following was still true: Heath Ledger was alive, the Emergency Stabilization Act was an absurdity resting in the comfortably distant future, and Aaron Rodgers had not played a single game as the Packer's starting QB. The year was 2007, the album was the successful but underrated Wincing the Night Away . We haven't heard much from the band in the five years since (with the exception of Broken Bells - James Mercer's collaboration with Danger Mouse) so the upcoming Port of Morrow is something of an occasion for us [...]
I know I am a little late on this, but here are the albums that I am looking forward to hearing the most. Please understand this is not my guess at what will be the best albums of 2012, or my attempt at finding the pulse of what the general public is most excited about.

The Shins will be releasing their fourth studio album in about a month, and until that moment comes myself and every other right-minded Indie music lover alive will be scouring the corners of the internet, looking for any bit of new information while waiting for it's release.

Na sessão acústica e intimista, Mercer não apenas revisitou as clássicas Pilgrims e Slang como também [...]
