You gotta spend some time....with this album.


Lately I have been listening to some new albums and wanted to point out a real gem that I think you should check out. I have always liked Death Cab...since Transatlanticism, but this album is awsome. This album really hits its stride, at a time when this band has industry capital to spare they raised the bar. From the 9 minute balad "I will Possess Your Heart" , to the 2 song set ending in "Grapevine Fires", Ben Gibbard really pulls you into this album with his strong vocals. Ranging from the tragicly pathetic "you can do better than me" to the painfully epic "The Ice is Getting Thinner" this album delivers from begining to end.

Rarely do I listen to an albums latter tracks and find myself thouroughly impressed. But I would place this album along side other epic albums as well. If you dont take this album in, I am regretfully sad to say you are missing out on a great album. Go give it a spin, you'll like it....take my word for it.
