All right. Outside it is colder, the days are getting longer, the trees bare and the sun too often disappear under a gray cloud / rain mix. Yes, fall is here ... again. Always good in autumn ... Sad nice guitar music fortuitous. What does one be at hand? Coldplay make rather bombastic and Starsailor want harsher tones sing. No, my tip for the autumn of 2005 ... Death Cab for Cutie. The indie band from Seattle had carved out great albums regularly in previous years, this year they have noticed me for the first time. Just now. How fitting. Generally, you go to "plan" rather calmly. One hears mostly gentle guitar pop รก la Thirteen Senses, or the early Coldplay (bad if you already now have to express it). The guitars pluck discreet, a piano emerges from time to time on ... strings and organ are also no obstacle. And then the buttery soft voice of the singer, coupled with dreamy melodies and lyrics. This is pure feel-good music. "Marching Bands of Manhattan" are equal before the direction. So whoever hears Title 1 and noted he likes this kind of music, which is in good hands with Death Cab for Cutie. At the latest with the melodic pop-Hammer "Soul Meets Body" has the band then final. There then follow another delicate pop gems such as the ingenious "I will follow you into the Dark" (only with acoustic guitar), or the melancholic "Brothers on a Hotel Bed". Oh, not really necessary to a song out access ... it's all great. Sure, the "Death Cab for Cutie" not reinvent the wheel with it, but it sounds great. The music is honest, soulful and well done, great songs and full of atmosphere. As I first said, who needs music for beautiful cold fall days ... this record is the best remedy for it, not to feel lonely and cold. Consistently successful, nondescript little masterpiece.
