The Music Thread

THE most overrated Phish song (IMO).

THE most overrated Phish song (IMO).

Song: New Slang
Artist: The Shins
Album:Fighting in a Sack

You may already know this....but actually "New Slang" is from the "Oh Inverted World" album. "Fighting in a Sack" is the much newer EP (or whatever they're calling those 4-5 song releases now.....it's also the title of one of the tracks on "Chutes to Narrow." If you like this EP, you should really get both of those albums, as well as the latest.... "Wincing the Night Away."

Basically, just get it all, because it's all really, really good. BTW, they're playing Merriweather here in MD in October, and Spoon is opening. I'm pretty psyched.
