So in case you haven’t heard, indie-pop legends The Shins are releasing their fourth studio album, Port of Morrow, this Tuesday. The entire album is actually streaming via iTunes (and it is pretty damn good) but “Simple Song” really stuck out to me. Its breezy, carefree chorus takes me back to the days of Oh, Inverted World. Listen and let me know what you think.
I for one am very excited.

I'm finding the album as a whole to be pretty underwhelming, though.

in terms of the album, it's more laid back and straightforward than they usually are and while i think it's a step down for them, i still rather enjoy it
