Its hard to find an account of indie rockband The Shins, without a reference to Natalie Portman's 2004 Garden State quote The Shins "will change your life".
Well, this seems to be true in any case for Jesse Sandovol, who, last month, made the awkward transition from being the band's drummer to being the proud owner of a taco stand. The seemingly powerful and dominant frontman James Mercel replaced him with a rocker from Modest Mouse, also kicking out the keyboardist in exchange for a former Grand Archives member. You should be able to hear their 'new sound' sometime next year.
But for now, the Shins as they used to be:
Start slow. End rowdy.
