What happens if the Shins decided to drink? YOU GET BOAT! It's like The Shins for parties, with something else in there I can't quite put my finger on. I have Let's Drag Our Feet it's really good.

I like what I'm hearing, especially "Elephant Ears".

Thanks for sharing, I'm always down for new music.

I really cant make my mind up about these. They have that indie chinga chinga aesthetic that I hate, yet there is some great melodies and I can hear a lot of British influences going on. Hmmmm.

Sounds awesome.
The first five seconds of I'm Donkey For Your Love made me laugh out loud.

Well I've never heard of these guys before, but apparently they have a new album out today, Setting the Paces. It's really really ****ing good. Sort of a combination of The Shins if they weren't so produced and Girls. There more creative than a lot of the lo-fi garage rock type stuff coming out now, usually when I listen to albums like this a lot of the songs run together. With Boat I never lost interest for a second, they actually vary their sound from song to song! And nothing seems like filler to me, the whole album is quality songs. I'd post a video, but there aren't any I can find. You can probably use sleepy jack's myspace link if you're interested.
