amazing song and amazing album

Yup, this one is lovely. Anyone heard any of the new Death Cab stuff yet?

I like the Postal Service sound more than Death Cab-- feel like I can hear his voice better. Mm... I love this album!!!

Yeah, I've had Plans for several weeks now, close to a month I think. It's quite good, though different. I feel like it's less lyrically competent in places when compared to DCFC's "Transatlantacism" or the Postal Service's "Give Up." I hope Ben brings his sense of poetry back and decides to do another PS album.

I like that song along with Such Great Heights

Sounds worth a listen. For me, they've always waivered between adolescent awkwardness in their lyrics (the prosecution call that embarrassing cover of This Charming Man with the misheard lyrics) and near genius. I liked The Postal Service because they seemed like DCFC, but off on an interesting tangent, and I have to admit that The Photo Album and We Have The Facts are my favourites. I tried out dntel too, but they were just too darn noodly for my tastes :(
