Death Cab for Cutie Start Work on New Album

Is there a new Death Cab For Cutie album on the way? All signs point to yes. In January, drummer Jason McGerr told MTV they were hard at work on demos, insisting, “It’s the project this year for us.” Yesterday, via Twitter, Death Cab for Cutie multi-instrumentalist/producer Chris Walla said the following: “Started tracking the new DCFC record on Tuesday. Expect vuvuzelas and Balinese kecack. Perhaps also a bird choir.”

While no release date or additional info regarding the Narrow Stairs follow-up has been announced, we’ve been given hints about a possible shift in sound. Last year, in conversation about their Open Door EP, Ben Gibbard told Under the Radar the following: “I am not quite interested in continuing to write songs that dark. I mean, songs kind of come out themselves. But I kind of feel like I’ve reached a zenith with this batch of songs. I guess we’ll kind of see where my mind takes me for the next record but I can’t imagine it continuing to wallow in that particular place.”
