Death Cab For Cutie at The Stage AE

“Thank You For Today,” Death Cab For Cutie’s most recent critically-acclaimed record, is their first since the departure of original principal songwriter Chris Walla. “It’s been very liberating for me to take on the role of creative leader,” said Ben Gibbard, who has been in charge since Chris Walla left. “I guarantee you that a lot of these songs would not have ended up the way they did if Chris was still in the band. They might not have been recorded at all…I say that not to diminish his brilliance or his massive contribution to the first 16 years of this band. It’s more that I was happy to leave the studio head-butting behind.”

The new freedom of Death Cab For Cutie really shows in their latest LP – you can hear immediately upon listening that it’s come from a less angst-ridden, happier place overall. Now, get ready to experience the new Death Cab For Cutie live for yourself – book your tickets today!!
