First Impression - The New Death Cab

i loved "photo album", thought they "dumbed down" or "rocked up" their sound a bit for "transatlanticism", but still liked it a lot. "plans" sounds like a lighter "transatlanticism" almost to the point of fluff. i'm going to need more listens. i must be wrong.

Threw in the towel on these guys about halfway through the Photo Album.

I heard one of the new tunes on fluxblog yesterday. Not my thing....

Photo Album is easily the worst Death Cab album.

Dug this thread back up to say that I finally got this album... and it sucks.

Total letdown; definately their worst album in my opinion. So overproduced it sounds like Pinback.

and boring.

and I LIKED the Photo Album.

Seeing them live Sunday. I'm actually looking forward to the Youth Group set more than DCFC's.

I love it because although they are kind of at a crossroads, it pretty much presents the songs without much gimmick or frills. And I like the songs. Not as self-conscious as Trans, but more mature than Yes and Photo. I think it's the perfect record for them right now.

They'll fuck up the next one, though.

The only song I really liked from that album was "Information Travels Faster." This new one ain't bad, not as good as Transatlanticism.
