The best thing I ever heard while working was "Whistle While You Work" played on the Musak. Things could be worse. |

I really want to like this band, but I would never buy anything from a band with a stupid name like Death Cab for Cutie.
Funny- their name originally caught my eye while I was on the phone. I practically hung up on the caller to hear a band offbeat enough for the name, and wasn't dissapointed. They are not over-the-top great, but consistently good, consistently imaginative, and I like them (and have purchased their music).
So what's in a name? Enough separation to be heard, I guess. |

bleh... do not like. DCFC, you can do so much better, and you have in the past.
the other tracks i've heard from this new album are, so far, much better imho.
oh, also: super cool cover art. ^_^

The band's name comes from a song by the same title written by the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, recorded on their '67 lp, Gorilla.

I like the extended intro of this song. A shortened fm-sensitive version would suck. Viva la RP!

This song sounds an awful lot like LCD Soundsystem. Especially the vocals.

just got back from san diego. they have an fm station that plays this song an awful lot with only about 45 seconds of intro. i don't usually like death cab at all, but i'm into this song. is this a good representation of what the rest of this album sounds like?
p.s. the intro is still on...
