Somehow managed to find all the albums on my computer although I have never bought them/dowloaded them, I took this as a sigh to listen to all of them in one bash.

Plans and Something About Planes were the two standout albums, although I did enjoy the Crooked Teeth EP. . . Soul Meets Body :) Best song of the lot.

transatlantacism, and then get the photo album. they are both great. transatlantacism is just as good as plans, imo

also if you are liking the ben gibbard stuff you should listen to the postal service's album, give up, and start listening to some Dntel (jimmy tamborello). both are electronic stuff. the postal service is ben gibbard's side project with tamborello (and is awesome) and Dntel is tamborello's "solo" stuff. he has done some songs with ben gibbard but also includes other indie stars like conor oberst, jenny lewis, rachel haden, and chris gunst.

I'd have to back anyone recommending transatlanticism... great album full of top notch tunes and lyrics which very much typify the band... although I love Plans and Narrow Stairs, I still kinda find myself evaluating all their stuff on a "is it as good transatlanticism" basis...

haha i hear that, but i think plans was as good as trans, just in a real different way. i listen to plans when i want to feel...you know that feeling when you walk outside on a chill fall day, and its real pretty outside, and you feel a little sad that this day won't last forever and that winter is around the corner but you are still happy because of how perfect out it is? that feeling. trans just makes me sad, in a good way though haha

Yeah, trans is a far more melancholic little collection of songs... beautifully craqfted though it is. Just got done listening to it and remembering what an amazing work it is... although definitely had to put on something more bouncy and happy after it.... hehehehehehe! Must revisit Plans very soon! I loved your description of it!

Is it bad that i just cant get into them?

at the same time i havent given much attention to their stuff. Any suggestions on songs i should hear? I do like Such Great Heights by the postal service but other than that im lost. Do i need to be in a reeeeeal chill mood for Death Cab?
