The Shins - Chutes Too Narrow
Okay so my Wi-Fi isn't working very well.
I'm listening to the first song off the album "Chutes too Narrow" by The Shins on YouTube. It's called "Kissing the Lipless."
Honestly, I'm starting to get the feeling I'm not going to be able to get through this whole album.
I like the music, I really do.
But the weird way he sings his falsetto is already driving me crazy.
Further in the song now. I'm actually really excited with the way this is going, though. I like the way the song started, I like everything other than the vocals, and I think I can set the vocals aside to appreciate the rest of the band.
We'll see. [=
I'm listening to "Mine's not a High Horse" now.
I don't like this song as much as the last one I don't know why.
It reminds me of... I don't even know.
I'm trying really hard, guys, but I'm not sure this band is my thing.
I know, once again, that I'm not trying to find my "thing" anymore, I'm trying to spread out. But I'm definitely more open to the first band than the second.
About five songs into it, I'm starting to realize that only a few songs on here are ones I can listen to all of the way through.
I haven't found my niche with this band, but I realize that that's okay.
I'm going to listen to some more anyway, though.
Yeah, I've definitely noticed that this band doesn't do anything for me.
Sorry to everyone who liked it, I'm sorry if I'm offending you.
Overall Summary: I feel like the band sounds older than they are. I don't particularly like them, but I'm definitely glad that I know what they sound like now, and I can have conversations even about some of the songs I've heard. ^_^ What am I taking on next?
