DCFC LEAK
  • pornophonypornophony
    Don't know what you reckon to the ethics or whatever but Narrow Stairs leaked today just a couple of hours ago if you want to grab it. It's sounding pretty damn good to me. Just letting you know.

    edit:
    there are a couple versions floating around of Narrow Stairs. i believe it has only as of now leaked in 128 AAC so there are quite a few transcodes.

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS WELCOME!

    the record is out in less than two weeks, right?  That's a pretty impressively small leak window.
  • pornophonypornophony
    yeah. it is a small leak window but, all the same, it has leaked.

    wow, "long division" is everything i would ever want in a death cab song. superb. still deliberating on the rest of the album.
  • pornophonypornophony
    transition between twin size bed and long division is amazing.

    Like Dave, I'm not bothering either right now. I find that often the quality of those leaked mp3s is not up to my snobby standards. I'll wait!
  • pornophonypornophony

    the quality of the music of Death Cab for Cutie is not up to my snobby standards

    LOL @ Dave! Well, my blog partner is much more of a fan of DCFC than I am. I have always found them kinda so-so, which is one reason I can wait, but I will definitely give this album a listen.
  • pornophonypornophony
    Dave, from what i know about you from reading your blog, I don't see how you can't see, at least, that DCFC's work on The Photo Album was actually something quite brilliant. I'll agree with you on most of what they've done since then as undoubtedly subpar in relation to that album, but i'd easily put it up with the greats of recent times. I don't believe for a second you've seriously listened to The Photo Album...
  • Dave RawkblogDave Rawkblog
    I like guitar pop as much as the next guy but the Photo Album is the high water mark of a band that's never been particularly good outside of Gibbard's killer melodies. That said, "I Was a Kaleidoscope" is so obviously the best song ever. Album's not nearly as good as comparable stuff from the Dismemberment Plan, Pinback, Elliott Smith, etc.
  • pornophonypornophony
    Yep, I accept what you are saying. Walla's production is a definite key part of the band, however. Agreed that they aren't better than any of those bands. Only recently got into Dismemberment Plan :) loving it...

    See, I hate Chris Walla's production. I think he ruined the last Decemberists album too.
