But basically it all rules, every track has outstanding moments and it has more atmosphere than anything else they ever did

Been going back into Death Cab's pre-Transatlanticism work since I'm seeing them in a few weeks and this is great. Transatlanticism is one of my favorites of all time so I have no idea why I've never listened to the early stuff.

first three tracks were killer. Lowell, Ma and 405 im not the biggest fan of but its picking back up with Company Calls. this is a jam. reminds me a lot of Minus the Bear

Album Rating: 4.5

Yeah this album kind of drags in the middle, it's still great though. Just shy of a 4 imo.

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah I can def see that. heard the last few tracks are killer though so im excited. Company Calls Epilogue is really cool how they repeat lyrics from Company Calls in the beginning

Album Rating: 4.0

yeah wow last two songs are killer. No Joy in Mudville is beyond great

Album Rating: 4.0

I don't know if I'd argue this is better than Transatlanticism, but this is certainly my favourite Death Cab album. After loving Transatlanticism though being disappointed by Plans and their debut, I went into this somewhat cautious, and whilst at first I was disappointed, this has grown on me so much. I love the groove on For What Reason, and Epilogue, No Joy in Mudville and Scientist Studies are three of Gibbard's best songs. And the slight emo tinge is so charming on this.

yes dat emo tinge is perfect. No Joy in Mudville might be my favorite Death Cab song. this is such a great album. tied with Trans for me

Listened to this earlier, but was distracted and only got to Company Calls which was the only thing that stood out at the time. What are your favorite songs on here, Sput?

Album Rating: 4.0

that's one of my fav tbh. also No Joy in Mudville. prob my fav Death Cab album

Album Rating: 4.5

Only 4th best Death Cab for me, 5th if the Stability EP counts. "Title Track", "The Employment Pages", and "Company Call" are all too notch though.

Album Rating: 4.0

Trans is prob a better album overall but this one is perfect for my tastes

Album Rating: 3.5

I dig these earlier Death Cab albums. More personality.

Album Rating: 4.5

They peaked in the Photo Album/Trans era, Narrow Stairs is underrated though and Plans is really good too if disproportionately popular. Their most recent two are pretty lame though and Ben Gibbard's solo album from a few years ago sucks. The debut doesn't do a whole ton for me either.
