So hating on Death Cab for Cutie is the cool thing to do right now?

Ever since Gibbard took Zooey Desanchel off the market, probably.

Bands. They have names. Sometimes, they get those names from songs. Which are these musical didies with words occasionally.

Let this thread be devoted to the decisions between the song or the band.
This thread will determine what was better, the band, or the song they named themselves after. You get to use your opinions on this one. Listen to the song, and use what you know of the band to determine what you'd find more pleasing to lsiten to repeatedly.

The band is up to you to find, I'll post the song.
Because a bands catalouge can be extensive, and occsionally the song is harder to find, so I, being the upright, charming chap that I am, will post the song so you don't have to look for it.

Swing by tomorrow when I go over how to tie your velcro shoes.

I voted for the band. I don't like all of their material, but do enjoy their early stuff. And while the song in the video is old school and probably influential blah blah blah, I don't care for it.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.

Well, the video isn't working but I'm gonna say the band. Probably my first indie band.

I have ALWAYS failed to see what is great about DCFC They simply sound like the most bland generic indie-rock/pop band, and Yes, I've heard all their albums.

What's eerie about this topic is how did The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band know when they wrote that song, Death Cab for Cutie, there was going to be a band in the future that had that name.

OK how about Talk Talk by The Music Machine versus Talk Talk by Talk Talk,
the only problem is if you like Talk Talk by Talk Talk better then Talk Talk by The Music Machine and the other Talk Talk material, should you vote for the song or the band?

YouTube - "Talk Talk" The Music Machine

YouTube - Talk Talk - Talk Talk (Version 1)

The band by so much it's unbelievable. I find Godsmack abysmal to be honest.
