I am now a fan
i have never been a die hard death cab fan because i tend to stick to acoustic rock but bands like the killers and now death cab give me hope for rock. It is just nice to hear creativity, great vocals, and amazing production without making it cookie cutter. Great album i highly recomend.
Typical Greatness
If you like Death Cab you'll love this album. If you don't like Death Cab then please seek medical help. Immediately. On first listen certain songs stand out as better than others ("No Sunlight"). On subsequent listens other songs stand out as superior to the others ("Cath", "Grapevine Fires"), even favorites from previous listens. By the 5th, 6th or 10th listen it suddenly dawns on you that at one time or another EVERY song has at one point been better than the others ("New Twin Size Bed", "Ice Getting Thinner" etc). THAT is my definition of a superior album. No filler, all substance, all meaningful, all catchy. Every listen brings a new favorite track, how the hell can you beat that?
Love songs, breakup songs, creepy stalker songs, slow songs, faster songs, soft songs, loud songs. By this album, download the mp3's (not DRM'd crap elsewhere) and hop on the Ben Gibbard bandwagon, plenty of room on board for one of the greatest songwriters around.
Our prayers have finally been answered.
The album couldn't be better. The album sheds light on a new sound but also brings the sounds of old. I'm hoping we don't have to wait as long for the next one.
