Nah. I felt the same way. You need to get used to it. It's one of those albums that'll grow on you with time.

Anyway start the pitchfork betting now, I'm betting its between 5 and 6.

pitchfork needs to get the sand out of their vag*nas and stop hating on anything that isn't indie or experimental.

5.4 is my guess.

also what i really like about how they did the new album is that they recorded it live.

So I picked up the new album and I think its great! The single "I Will Possess Your Heart" is a great song and I love the 4 and a half minute intro to the lyrics, which are simple but meaningful. Some of my other faves off it so far are Cath..., Grapevipe Fire, and Your New Twin Size Bed. Im really enjoying the upbeat feel of the music.

i went and saw them this saturday and ben gibbard lost like 400 pounds, grew out his hair, grew chops, and got contacts. wtf??

they were amazing live, but ben was a **** and they just played and tried to leave. the decemberists put on a better show, but death cab sounds almost precisely like on the new album.


the intro is absolutely the best part of that song.

The new album is very good in my opinion. What songs did you like off it? My favorites were "I Will Possess Your Heart", "No Sunlight", "Cath...", and "Long Division". I never knew they thought they sounded like Joy Division. I always figured they sounded the most like Built to Spill.
