I realize that they probably aren't OT's cup of tea, seems to be a lot of metal love goin' around. Anyway, what do you guys think? 9/10 I loves them. :3

I love death cab. People call them emo though. Obviously these people have no clue what emo is, let alone indie.

Easily 10 out of 10. I wasn't a big fan of their last album Narrow Stairs, although I loved the accompanying EP, The Open Door. I saw then in concert on the Vote for Change tour when they opened for Pearl Jam (that was actually how I first heard about DCfC).

*edit ~ I should add the DCfC is great live. My wife doesn't like their albums, but liked them in concert.

Hmm, yeah, narrow stairs isn't a really good album. My favourite would probably be transatlanticism. I haven't heard the new EP or whatever, I should check that out.

Yeah, Translanticism is a really good album. You should check out all of their EP's, some of my favorite songs are on them. Their EP's are Forbidden Love, The Open Door EP, and The Stability EP. I may be missing some, I'm not sure. Album wise I've been listening to "We Have the Facts and We're Voting Yes".

9/10.

I absolutely love Death Cab.

I'd also give The Postal Service a 9/10.

Ben Gibbard gets a 10/10 for marrying Zooey Deschanel. :o

I agree.

Every time a band covers a Smiths song,

the singer tries to sound like Morrissey, and it's annoying.

Death Cab's one of my favorite bands, but jeez... :x

That's what bothered me the most. Actually, now that I've listened to it again, aside from that it is quite a charming cover. It just sounds a bit "emo"...
