About Me

Tagline
I will possess your heart
Me, Myself, and I
Formed in the tiny college town of Bellingham, WA, Death Cab for Cutie started out as a solo project from engineering student and committed indie rocker Ben Gibbard. Having turned a freshly broken heart into nine songs he wasn�t embarrassed to share with someone else, he recruited fledgling four-track producer (and fellow Teenage Fanclub fan) Chris Walla and bassist Nick Harmer, the most amiable (and comic-book obsessed) musician on campus. The result was the 1997 cassette, You Can Play These Songs With Chords (finally released on CD in �02, expanded to include various DCFC rarities).

To set the record straight, the band�s name comes from a song performed by British jazz/rock/comedy combo the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band in the Beatles� Magical Mystery Tour film. To date Death cab have released 5 albums and have sold more than 4 million copies, and their side project named "The Postal Service" debut album sold more than 90,000 in the first week!

  • Upcoming Album

    According to a recent blog posting on the Hall Of Justice website, Chris Walla claims that Death Cab For Cutie's new album is "in full swing; we're six songs in." The posting went on to say "thus far it's pretty weird and pretty spectacular; lots of blood. It's creepy and heavy... we've got a ten minute long Can jam, and had you suggested that possibility to me in 1998, I'd have eaten your puppy's brain with a spoon."[1] It is planned to be released in May 2008. Ben Gibbard, lead singer and guitarist, claims that "I just don't feel like we really have anything to prove of it other than to ourselves and to making a record we really enjoy."
