The Shins

The Indie-Rock Pop-Rock quartet The Shins formed during the second half of the '90s in Albuquerque, New Mexico USA; originally comprised singer+guitarist James Mercer, guitarist Martin Crandall, bassist James Langford and drummer Jesse Sandoval, they made their recording debut in 1998 with an independent 7-inch titled "Nature Bears A Vacuum".

Another single followed in 2000 and eventually they signed a deal with Sub Pop Records.
Their debut full-length disc, "Oh, Inverted World", was issued a year later.
Before the group released their second album, Langford was replaced by bass player David Hernandez; "Chutes Too Narrow" came out in October 2003 and reached the #86 position on The Billboard 200 Albums chart; it contained the minor hit single "So Says I".

The highly anticipated third album from The Shins, "Wincing The Night Away", which was recorded in the summer of 2006, arrived in January 2007; the 12-track set includes the Hot Modern Rock Tracks top 30 hit "Phantom Limb" and their new single "Australia".
