I first heard this song by The Shins while watching the movie Garden State. Obviously, they owe much of their commercial success to Zach Braff. There is a scene in Garden State where Natalie Portman's character claims "You gotta hear this one song, it'll change your life I swear" referring to a song by The Shins.
The quintessential indie\alternative band, a unique sound, as far as one can be unique with a traditional band lineup. Many songs are very modern and trendy, while other tracks including Saint Simon dipped to a 60's Beatles sound.

I hate it when I have to use dictionary.com when reading your posts. Ha! I need to watch that movie. I hear it's a good one. Maybe I'll find a new love for The Shins after viewing the film. =)
