Our Review

With Codes and Keys Death Cab for Cutie turn on their heart light. Singer Ben Gibbard is now happily married to actress Zooey Deschanel and his worldview has gotten notably brighter. The band has also shifted the sound from guitars to analog synths that when mixed by Alan Moulder, the man who gave My Bloody Valentine and Nine Inch Nails a stronger definition, turns the group into an arena-rock superpower. “Doors Unlocked and Open” is a swerving piece of club music. “Some Boys” is an explosion of joy as Gibbard instructs, “Some boys don’t know how to love.” But he does. “You Are a Tourist” takes an indie-rock band and raises the recording budget until Death Cab sound like a mainstream radio-pop band. For modern day AOR, check “Unobstructed Views” with its sweet wonder of reverb and keyboards. “Stay Young, Go Dancing” shuffles with a kind hope while “Underneath the Sycamore” retains shades of power-pop as it dances in a bucolic light. The Deluxe Version includes the video for “You Are a Tourist” and two demos that sound surprisingly close to the official tracks.

Customer Reviews

It takes a while, but it'll blow your mind. (5 stars)
I listened to this when it was streaming on NPR for the past few days and at first, i hated the whole thing. But then after listening to it a couple times, it is really a mind blowing album. death cab has done something that nobody else could have done. Incredible.

Best song, Stay Young Go Dancing.

Death Cab doesn't come through on this one. (3 stars)
I've been a death cab fan for quite a few years. I have almost every album. Plans is by far their best album as a whole. Narrow Stairs was very well done also (though with a few dead tracks). I was looking for death cab to put out a solid new album, as it has been a few years since Narrow Stairs.

I am disappointed with their work this time around. I've listened through all tracks now and maybe one track stood out. The rest of the t

It's awesome. (5 stars)
Bands evolve. They change over time. DCFC is going in a good direction. From awesome to even more awesomer. Great album.

Death Cab for Cutie's rise from small-time solo project to Grammy-nominated rock band is one of indie rock's greatest success stories. Launched in the bayside college town of Bellingham, Washington, the group was originally a side project for singer/guitarist Ben Gibbard, an engineering student at Western Washington University who split his time between school and music. Taking a break from his local power pop band, Pinwheel, Gibbard began recording an album's worth of solo material during the summer...
