Biography: Death Cab For Cutie
You can thank (or blame) Seth Cohen, but Death Cab For Cutie are a band that consistently turns out sincere, thoughtful indie rock in a style their own, and a band like that's not gonna stay a secret. Moving from Barsuk to Atlantic in 2004, the Washington based group made the rare and enviable transformation from adored indie rock act to major label success story, topping the album sales chart with 2008's Narrow Stairs while retaining a core, obsessive fanbase. In May, DCFC became the first and only band ever to guest blog Stereogum, telling us about their previous day jobs and love for Warren G along the way. They're active independently, too: Ben Gibbard's laptop pop project the Postal Service is Sub Pop's best selling album since Nirvana's Bleach, and Chris Walla's turned his own worthy solo album, alongside notable production work on Ben's Postal Service album and Tegan & Sara's The Con. Chris also contributed a b-side to our tribute to Radiohead's OK Computer; have a listen here.
