Riff: Death Cab For Cutie – “Black Sun”

Jan 26, 2015

How could something so fair be so cruel?/When this black sun revolved around you?

from Black Sun lyrics by Death Cab For Cutie

Always great to see alumni of the indie disparity set cum chart royalty continue to find shadows. To Gibbard’s credit, though, so goes the first DCFC LP since he and Zooey Deschanel broke the blogosphere w/ divorce news, and the last w/ sonic pillar Chris Walla. Oh that cruel PNW “Black Hole Sun.”
