MP3 Death Cab For Cutie Want Your Heart

You’re Death Cab For Cutie.
People get tattoos of your album art and post photos of them online.
You’re arguably one of the last big rock acts left.
You have a new album, Narrow Stairs, on its way, so your debut single is… 8:35 long?!?

For a band that is often ridiculed for being soft, this is a bold move. Granted, the single, “I Will Possess Your Heart,” has a radio edit, but it’s still an admirable decision considering that the band, at this stage of their career, could just phone it in and still end up with a hit record and mantle full of sparkling Grammys.

Also, how much are you willing to wager that the first remix of this song is titled “I Will Repossess Your Heart,” eh?
