Reviews
"You can’t help but buckle up when you here the fortified first words of 'Caring Is Creepy'....It’s a superb introduction to the indie rock band’s debut album, which remains a succinct and fresh listen almost 20 years later.", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...Their pop songs jangle without being too sunny....These 11 songs whiz by in a gorgeous blur, over far too soon.", Ranked #14 in Mojo's "Best 40 Albums of 2001"., "...Palpable, '60s-influenced jangle pop....one of the most consistently enjoyable takes on Brian Wilson...", 3 out of 5 stars - "...The Shins fall into the folk category, focusing on hazy Beach Boys pop and swooning Simon & Garfunkel harmonies...", "...Their Lovely Jangly Appeal Is All Their Own...", 8 out of 10 - "...Evokes the shimmering coastlines and baked desertscapes of California with a vivid beauty seldom glimpsed since The Beach Boys hung up their surfboards..."
