Give this one time - just like all great albums. It's winter, nature is stripped, and this - like every Shins album - is composed for insect-buzzing summer nights. When I come back to you in a couple'a weeks, don't even try and tell me you don't add your own high-pitched "la-la-la"'s to "Australia". For equal measure - "A Comet Appears" and her dramatic>ironic tweeting of birds is obviously one of the saddest songs ever written:

"[I've] never worked so long and hard / to cement a failure".

 

Bonus: "Opinions are like George W. Bush: hurry up and DIE, you fucking retard".
