Sorry for the lack and updates and yada-yada-yada…
I was thinking of something worthwhile to update the blog with, and what’s more worthwhile than some new material from Death Cab For Cutie. Without doubt, one of the finest and most consistently brilliant bands in recent years with both ‘Transatlanticism’ and ‘Plans’ launching the band from relative unknowns into… well, lesser unknowns.
On Saturday, the first single from their new album ‘Narrow Stairs’ (released on May 16th) had it’s video premiere on their official site. The song is 8 and a half minutes of sheer bliss, although there is a radio edit which runs at about 4 (mainly due to the lack of vocals for 4 minutes in the album version). For those of you who can’t pinpoint where you’ve heard it before, the bassline is the same as the one playing alongside the video teaser for the new album on the official site.
The new album is definitely one of my most anticipated of 2008.. and I really doubt it’ll disappoint judging by their last two album. Oh.. and by the way, the image heading this blog-post is the official cover for the new album.
Anyways, enough waffle.. here’s the full un-edited video in it’s 8 and a half minute glory - enjoy!
