I love The Shins and I love James Mercer. That being said, I’m extremely excited for The Shins new album to be released on March 20th called “Port of Morrow.” I’ve been waiting since 2007 for a new album. Along with the new album, The Shins will have a small spring tour (which I’m hoping they expand to some east coast venues).  If you preorder the new album, you get a free pre-download of their new song “Simple Song”, which you can stream on their website and see the video for below. GET ON THAT HYPE.
