New Death Cab Album

Death Cab for Cutie’s follow up to 2006’s Plans will release this May 20. The title will be Narrow Stairs and the album art can be seen here. A teaser video showing footage from the studio can be seen here. This is DCFC’s second record to be put out by Atlantic Records, and the tracklisting can be found in the rest of this post.

The song “I Will Possess Your Heart” can be streamed on the band’s myspace now. It’s super long and the vocals don’t come in until about half way through, so be ready for that. What does everyone think of this song? Is it a good direction for the band? Or is it even their new direction? Are they just posting this song first to throw us off as to what the rest of the record will sound like?
