Album Notes Death Cab For Cutie: Benjamin Gibbard (vocals, organ, keyboards, drums, percussion); Christopher Walla (guitar, electric piano, glockenspiel, percussion, samples, background vocals); Nicholas Harmer (bass); Nathan Good (drums).DC4C's second full length is everything you want from indie-rock: great songs, great lyrics, and ragged-but-right performances. Texturally there's nothing here you've not heard before: various combinations of guitar, drums, and bass.Cabmaster Ben Gibbard's early cassette releases reveal a slightly smug wiseass who thinks he's just okay. But for the recording of this disc, Gibbard's voice is full of confidence. His songwriting/lyrics show a new depth and grow more infectious with repeated listenings. "Company Calls Epilogue," in particular, cuts right to the heart with its winding melodic line and lyrics that are full of regret.
Editorial Reviews ...Warm, pensive numbers that take their time going nowhere....Death Cab should rock out like this more often.CMJ (4/3/00, p.3) - ...Its shifting layers of guitar and keyboards and its economical use of dreamy, depth-enhancing production effects are amazingly effective...NME (8/22/02, p.43) - 7 out of 10 - ...A charming slice of indie rock that reeks of universal appeal... Magnet (06/01/2000)
