Emo-band Death Cab for Cutie will be releasing their new album (their 7th?), Narrow Stairs, on May 13, 2008.
The first single off the album, I Will Possess Your Heart, runs at a full 8:30 minutes. Check out the video below for the radio edit version. Or here, for the full length.
Update 17 June 2008: Alas, the once rumoured DCFC stop-by gig in Malaysia has been squashed. How about bringing in Weezer instead? Heard Rivers Coumo is an Asian-loving chap. Perhaps the organizers can persuade him by offering 300 Asian groupies, no?
Ben Gibbard is like a musical genius. I love what he does with Death Cab for Cutie. Even his side project The Postal Service is equally as good, albeit a little more electronica. So when I stumbled across this post featuring a host of Gibbard-related (collaboration with American Analog Set’s Andrew Kenney (who?)) songs, I couldn’t resist but to link it up. Get it while they’re still up, the post is a week old.
Here’s what you’ll get:
Styrofoam ft. Andrew Kenney - Front to Back
Styrofoam ft. Ben Gibbard - Couches in Alleys
Ben Gibbard - You Remind Me of Home (Live on KEXP)
Ben Gibbard & Andrew Kenney - Farmer Chords
Ben Gibbard & Andrew Kenney - Secrets of the Heart
American Analog Set - The Postman (Styrofoam’s Just Like the Nineties Never Happened Mix)
