has there ever been a better band?

discuss.

Awesome band! every album is as good as each other. Postal Service are also very good!

Better band to cut your wrists to? Possibly not.

Yes. They are great though, although seeing them live was a bit of a studentfest. Basically, STFU when the band are playing! Why on earth would you pay good money to shout unintelligible rubbish at your mates for a couple of hours?

the only time i've ever cried like a baby in public was running back over the golden gate bridge into sf one night with death cab for cutie on my ipod. everything was just too pretty.

best moment of my entire life to date.

they are very good

but lots of bands are better

HTH

Ro, if you think that was good wait to you have sex. It will blow your mind.

Couple of tracks are ok. Kath, I will posses your heart. some others not so great

the xx are pretty good!

REM with a melody block and a vocalist who reminds me of the John Belushi party/stair singer scene in Animal House

the xx are pretty good!

Yes they are, less so live unfortunately

Find 2.54 on myspace, track is Creeping if you like the XX

DCFC are a terrific band, and live they really rock. Seen them twice, once in a 500 capacity venue in Bristol when Transatlantisism came out, and a couple of years ago at Koko as part of iTunes Live. I wouldn't say they're the best band, there are many I love just as much, such as Metric, who I'm seeing in London tomorrow, Elbow, who are possibly my favourite band, Wolf Parade, who I'm seeing in September, The New Pornographers, Stars, Arcade Fire, Black Mountain. DCFC manage to write intimate personal songs that translate into really anthemic rock songs live. Love 'em.
