Death Cab For Cutie-Something About Airplanes (1998)
A bit of an accidental masterpiece, Something About Airplanes dense, murky production pefectly compliments Death Cab's wistful, string-filled pop songs. The only flaw's on this brilliant debut album is that the muddled production makes the songs sound the same upon first listen, denying them the catchyness of Death Cab's later work's, and that it makes you sad that DCFC moved away from the dense, string-laden sound that dominates this recording. Standout's are Your Bruise, Bend To Squares, President Of What, and Picture In An Exhibition.
