A new Death Cab for Cutie Song has been released! The song is titled “Black Sun” and it is the leading single for the alternative/indie/emo guys’ new record after 4 years, named Kintsugi. Although founding member Chris Walla has left the band, Death Cab does not seem to have lost its stride. “Black Sun” chuggs along over a steady drum beat, tight guitar melody, and some synths all throughout. The production is extremely clean and fresh, with electronic elements and panned melodies flowing craftily. Lyricist Ben Gibbard writes in the usual style; his words are introspective, moody, and thought-provoking. “How could something so fair, be so cruel, when this black sun revolved, around you?” We hope Ben will someday put away his laments, but for now, we’ll continue to enjoy the band’s output.
