If you're the sort of person who can watch The O.C. without
snickering, you probably already know about Death Cab For
Cutie and have decided whether you like 'em or not. Then again,
if you're that sort of person, what in the world are you doing reading
music reviews by an old fart like me?
I'll admit to having seen some of The O.C., despite being
nowhere near their target demographic. But I don't normally find the
show's musical choices compelling, at least not the way I did
Buffy or
Angel. So I
was surprised to discover that
DCFC is my kind of band: restrained, melodic, smoothly performed.
Probably the kiss of death for an audience that hasn't lost big chunks
of its hearing or heapin' handfuls of brain cells.
Not yet, anyway.
