so last week death cab for cutie sent out a myspace bulletin announcing that in may of 2008 they will be releasing their next studio album. i am muuuuuch excited! though "plans" can't even remotely compare to the sheer awesomeness that are "transatlanticism" and "the photo album", i think it helped solidify their sound. they are both deep and shallow, pithy and pathetic, witty and banal, and all in a good way. people can listen to them on a o.c. level and think they're, like, totally, like, you know, cool, right? and people like me can listen to them and have my heart broken and partially stitched back together for every fucking song.may can't come soon enough...

  3. Cinful says May will truly feel like forever, won't it?! I feel like a kid in the back seat during a trip ... Is it May, yet?? Is it May, yet??

  4. YellowBird- says How on earth did this guilty myspace whore miss that vital piece of information? Ugh. I am so excited. Plans is my favourite album, or at least on a par with Transatlanticism, so my initial thoughts were ones riddled with concern that nothing could be as good. But I find reassurance in the fact we are talking about Death Cab here. They are consistently brilliant- ever growing and changing, but brilliant. Wake me up when May arrives?

  5. caliscrnwrtr says have you checked out the new(-ish) site? i really like it - especially the stand-alone player. though i do wish it had more music on it. but the site is uberslick and really cool looking. and i'm guessing the new cd is going to play on the orange/circus-y design.

  6. Cinful says yeah, it's very cool and has a very good feeling about it ... I, too, was very suprised that there weren't more videos on it ... granted, in the Fan Club there are more videos ... even bootlegs from shows; so, between the 2 sites, you get quite a few without having to slide over to youtube! LOL
