Death Cab, Sea Wolf, more playing Hot Topic for New Moon
Remember when I called the Twilight: New Moon Hot Topic tour “the worst plan of all things ever planned?” Well back then, the thought was these good bands (Death Cab, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, etc.) would tour Hot Topic stores in support of the new teen vampire movie they wrote songs for. Almost true! As… Continue reading Death Cab, Sea Wolf, more playing Hot Topic for New Moon
Death Cab’s new song for the Twilight movie
This whole situation seems really shady to me. The soundtrack for the new Twilight movie includes the likes of Death Cab For Cutie, Radiohead, Muse and Bon Iver.

Because what’s better than going to work hung-over Thursday morning with Crystal Stilts still ringing in your ears? Several things, actually. Several things. Wednesday: Death Cab For Cutie &… Continue reading This Week in Concerts: Death Cab, Crystal Stilts, Beirut, etc.
A Death Cab/She & Him Wedding
Death Cab For Cutie front man Ben Gibbard and actress/She & Him front woman Zooey Deschanel have just announced their engagement (according to MTV.com)! It’s great because she’s so cute and he’s so… hrmm. Regardless it’s a great day for music. Here’s to hoping they last (or not. I’m still waiting for Zooey)! Here’s a video… Continue reading A Death Cab/She & Him Wedding
