death cab to release "narrow stairs" on may 13th
The whole idea with this record was that we were going to track as much as we can completely live and nobody stops the take no matter what happens. The jamming live-to-tape method is what spawned the first single off the album, the eight minute “I will possess your heart”. There’s a lot of moments on the record where something is never the thing that you would choose but then, now that it’s there, it’s the thing you would miss completely if it was gone.
“Unquestionably the best thing Death Cab has ever done”
-James Montgomery, Rolling Stone
