4. Death Cab For Cutie - Untitled Album (TBA 2014)
It's been an interesting few years for Death Cab For Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard. He's been married, then divorced, released a solo album, reunited The Postal Service and all of it has led back to a new Death Cab For Cutie album. Rumors that Death Cab For Cutie was writing a new album started to circulate around June of last year and as recently as October 2013 the band confirmed that they were already underway with the recording process. Death Cab For Cutie is never one to rest on their laurels. Although each album contains their signature sound they always find a way to push it forward in some way and this new album should be no exception. Their last album "Codes and Keys" was quite heavy on the keys (total pun intended) as they used quite a few different types of synths and pianos to construct their songs. It will be interesting to see where this album takes them creatively but like a fine wine the band only seems to get better with time and considering all the action Ben Gibbard has seen over the past few years one has to assume he's got plenty to write about.
