Death Cab For Cutie – Plans
While definitely not their best work, I have come to really appreciate this album. I don’t know what happened, but it seems almost uncool to like this band anymore. For me I think the band has matured quite a bit on this year’s release. I’ll admit that it’s strange to hear Death Cab For Cutie on my local radio stations, but I’d rather be hearing that than the new Jessica Simpson song. Success isn’t always a bad thing; I think these guys deserve the credit they get.
What the critics say:
Coke Machine Glow – 47%
Stylus Magazine – B-
Tiny Mix Tapes – 3.5/5
Metacritic.com – 63/100
Pitchfork – [6.5]

while not a huge DCFC fan, I have to say that “Soul Meets Body” was one of my favorite singles of the year. Had that ’80s sheen all over it.
