Death Cab For Cutie - "Plans" (Atlantic/WEA)

Lead vocalist Ben Gibbard sings like an angel and the songs on this CD make great use of jangly guitars and sinewy synthesizers. Bellingham, WA, indie pop quartet Death Cab for Cutie may remind you of a cross between REM and New Order, but they craft truly unique songs about relationships that draw you completely in.

Death Cab For Cutie is WXPN's Artist To Watch for August 2005. Learn more...
