    Preceding the release of ‘Wincing The Night Away’, The Shins release the beautifully crafted ‘Phantom Limb’; a gorgeous slice of indie pop rock with a warmth that could melt even the stoniest of hearts. A straight forward and unfaltering beat keeps the track in check and mirrors James Mercer’s smooth nostalgic vocals which are matched by a driving and conserved guitar that doesn’t get caught up in the moment, and guarantees multiple repeated plays. If this track is representative of the forthcoming album, then hold on tight and get ready for The Shins in 2007.
