After twenty-odd years in the major label system, Death Cab For Cutie returned to their indie roots and signed with ANTI Records and they're back with a brand-new eleventh album titled, I Built You A Tower out June 5th.
I Built You A Tower is the sound of loss, compartmentalization, and then grief bursting out from the seams. It's also the sound of the growth that comes after falling apart, of acknowledging pain without letting it destroy you. "I see the tower existing on your emotional horizon," Ben Gibbard states. "You don't always have to look at what's inside it, but it's a reminder that it happened. You know it's there. You have to face it."
