Death Cab For Cutie's new single

pretty sweet track, i dont normally like them all that much but a friend told me about this new single from their upcoming album, listened to it and really liked it. the bassist and drummer kind of have this gothic thing going on the whole song, and the piano's doing a couple kind of short almost like, jazzy/classical riffs, they're brief in the first 4 and a half minutes. anyway i was impressed, video was pretty cool too. speak your minds.

Pretty chill, I like it

[Caiti]

Thank you for posting that, not only did I really like the video, but the song was great :D Can't wait for that album to come out

[Natallon]

heard it today
wasnt a fan before but i really like it

[Blarg]

4 minute intro's really suck, otherwise a good song.

[Saga]

aw really? i liked the intro then again i listen to tool a lot so im used to 8, 10, 12 minute songs with several-minute long intros

[Beckwin]

it's a solid track, but doesn't really get into a groove until the last couple minutes. luckily the video carries us through until that point. I like Death Cab, but there's this constant back and forth with them for me between being interesting and boring/bland. It's not just a tempo thing either because Champaign in a Paper Cup is one of my favorites. instrumentation and vocals on this are good, and I really like the line "I know you'll find, love/I will possess your heart" as you can also read it "I know you'll find love".

I was kinda disappointed in the last album (although I remember there was a great single), and if the rest of it is too similar to this song I honestly won't listen to it much. Not to say it'll be terrible, but the band is just more interesting to me when they go for bolder stuff.

[Epical]

I like DCFC a good bit, but I found that song to be extremely repetitive and uninspiring. =\ I even listened to it a second time to see if it was just me, but nope. Almost 18 straight minutes of that straight bass riff makes me want to kill someone.

[Trichocyst]

I'm waiting to hear the entire album before judging the track. Hopefully the album doesn't disappoint. I'd love to see DCFC on tour this year but they're playing a gigantic venue and years ago I saw them 4-5 times at venues no bigger than my basement.

At first I wasn't really into the whole beat of it, but around the 3 minute mark I started getting into the track. Very chill song, I was of a fan of their other album (name escapes me, but it had crooked Teeth, sarahs song). I'm interested in what they do with the whole album over all, anyone know the release date?


As for tours, I hope they do a fall/winter tour because I dropped about $750 on tickets just last week and doubt I can afford another concert... (Didn't help 1 Clapton ticket was $250)

[Beckwin]

ah, crooked teeth is the single I was thinking of!

Also I've heard they're really good live, but I haven't gotten to see them yet.

[Demosthenes11]

i want my 8.5 minutes back
that was horrible, I'm sorry

[Not Kuno]

I liked the song but the long intro was very boring. >.>

[Intense]

Its different. I like it. :]

NO REFUNDS

Well as you can probably tell by my avatar I have always been a huge Death Cab fan. Personally I really like the song, but feel as though it could of done without such a long intro. I was really pissed that I missed their concert when they were in Houston last year, but I'm planning on making the 4 or so hour drive to see them this June in Grand Prairie.

Shit, I was tricked, I clicked this topic as I was reading "Death Cab" expecting something cool, but I caught the rest of it after I clicked, and was like "dammit".

Just because the first 5 minutes doesn't have vocals doesn't mean it's an "intro."

A majority of my favorite music doesn't often rely on vocals to be complete, The Rum Diary, Mogwai, Múm, M83, Mew, The American Analog Set, etc etc.

I enjoyed this although the entire video seemed to been ripped straight out of Lost in Translation. I guess it appeals to the target audience though. I'll admit doing something like she's doing is a moving experience. I recommend it.
