Forget the few

A couple of new songs that caught my attention this week.

Phantom Limb is from the new Shins album, Wincing the Night Away, forthcoming on Sub Pop. The song is decent, I guess. It didn't blow me away or anything. Could have been better. Doesn't give me high hopes for the new album. I guess with great fame comes great mediocrity.

LLL will be on Jesse Sykes new LP, Like, Love, Lust & the Open Halls of the Soul, forthcoming on Barsuk this year. Also underwhelming. Perhaps too quiet. Oh, My Girl was simultaneously bold and feathery. It had a pronounced perspective and a voice. "LLL" is just, well, boring.
