snl may not be so bad

The Shins are one of my favorite bands since I first heard them on the Garden State Soundtrack. I managed to keep my eyes open long enough last night to catch them on SNL. I could not find the clip of their SNL appearence on YouTube, so here is their latest video. The new album drops on Jan 23.

And I may not agree with his politics (definatly not with his sister's) or his choice in movie roles, but Jake Gyllenhaal is really hot, and good singer to boot. This was one of the better intros I have seen on SNL in a while.


UPDATE: Stereogum has a less then complimentary opinion about The Shins performance, but liked Jake's effort. Atleast I'm one for two with the experts...
