Death Cab for Cutie is a strange band for me. I don’t ever recall a band that I’ve listened to so regularly for so long. The CD changer in my car has rarely been without at least one of their CDs over the last 3 years.

They seem to hit almost every criteria for music I like. They’re not the best at any one of them, but the combination is amazing. They’re poppy, very melodic, have epic songs that only sound right when listening to the whole thing and a great singer (Ben Gibbard).

Check them out if you like any of those things. Even though I don’t really listen to lyrics myself I’m told he tells some good stories in the songs.
