The Shins
Here are some odds and ends I've found over the few weeks of one of my tops, The Shins.
Nature Bears a Vacuum EP
(1998) Not such a fan of this set. I always liked the quieter stuff by them, and this.. isn't. But hey, to every completist, here it is. Buy it for 30x better quality.
The Shins - Those Bold City Girls
We built a raft and we floated
Eating styes from elephant eyes
My Seventh rib
When I goose-step EP
(2000) Here's more my speed from them. The title track was actually on the Wicker Park soundtrack I think. Another Omnibus release. Both songs are perfect.
The Shins - When I Goose-step
The Gloating Sun
Not on either
Strange Powers (Magnetic Fields cover)
Thanks goes out to Justin, who offered the 4th song on Nature but I managed to find it on the interweb...
And of course...
Buy Chutes too Narrow
Buy Oh, Inverted World
SubPop Records
Omnibus Records

That's... interesting. I'm bummed I got here too late to download some Shins. The one con to vacation.
you're not a fan of nature bears a vacuum? hmm.. personally, i think it's among their best work; i prefer it to all but three songs on oh, inverted world. and "those bold city girls" rocks harder than any shins song since.
