Well.. I have to say, this is fast becoming one of my favorite bands.

What are your opinions?

I hope you don't like them.

:icon_bigg



Oh, and if some one could direct me to the guitar sheet music for "I Will Follow You Into The Dark" I will +rep for sure.

I can deal with tablature.
but I prefer the normal music.

So yeah, discuss their music here.



Oh... and to prevent making another unnecessary thread, Does anyone know the chords used in The Best Deceptions by Dashboard Confessional?

I can play the intro just fine. but those chords sound like the chords that EVERYONE uses.. in the same way.
and I want them. haha

yes, this band is good.
I will look for the lyrics.
Merging doublepost
I just realized you asked for the sheet music not the lyrics!
Here are the lyrics though!
DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE LYRICS

"I Will Follow You Into The Dark"

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
The blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark

I've never heard anything like this. A good number of people in my school listen to them. Not just girls either. There alot of guys into Indie music.

you listen to shins, band of horses, keane ect?

DCFC has been one of my faves since two summers ago, I think. I don't know where you'd find sheet music for their songs, though. =[

Transantlantacism is the best album they put out.

Any thoughts on new album???

I thought it was decent, Not feeling some of the tracks though. I was hoping for an over all better album from them

I preffered when they were still the Postal Service.

But I still dig Death Cab...they are playing like 50 ft. from my porch on April 30th.

I got their new album. I feel like they are still steadily departing from the synth-pop influence of Postal Service and becoming more instrumental like Band of Horses. A lot more live instrumental sound and even some guitar with distortion on track #1.

Still great stuff tho'.
