Some great songs on that Shins album but that Neko is probably my favorite of the decade.

Neko

I've seen her live, I don't think I would waste my time with seeing The Shins.

The first Shins album was alright.

Neko Case is for lonely bedwetters.

The Shins lost me when they got some money behind them and abandoned the sparse folky production for a more polished "power pop" sound. I really like Oh Inverted World but its the only Shins that I like. I don't like any Neko though.

Shins

shins, if only for "new slang" which could be a contender for the best single of the 00's

Oh, Inverted World might be the best indie pop album of the decade.

I stated something very similar in the pool round and stand by it. Shins.
