In 2001 I stumbled upon an album titled “The Photo Album” by a relatively unknown four piece Seattle based indie rock band known as Death Cab for Cutie. From that day forth they became a personal favorite. As the years went by they grew as musicians and put out albums with varied styles ranging from the symphonic, ethereal “Transatlanticism”. To the poppy and soulful “Plans” and “Narrow Stairs”.

Death Cab for Cutie returns with their 7th full length album “Codes & Keys” on May 31st.
