Death Cab for Cutie Tickets - Opening a New Door

Commercializing as much as they can after their first commercially successful album Narrow Stairs, indie alt rockers Death Cab for Cutie are releasing an EP that is essentially an extension of the May 2008 album - "when we finished Narrow Stairs there were four extra songs that, because we were trying to put together an album, we ended up not including - it's not like they're castoffs or anything; they're part of the Narrow Stairs experience. They need to have a proper home, and the EP is it," Nick Harmer said to MTV. Now the four newest tracks, as well as a demo of the fifth Narrow Stairs track "Talking Bird," has found a proper home in The Open Door, the EP set for release in the beginning of April. The guys are supporting their latest critically acclaimed set with a healthy gobbling of spring and summer tour dates, where the EP can first be purchased before hitting stores mid-April, so make sure to pick up some Death Cab for Cutie tickets via the web's best and always friendly to hear the set!

The guys are hitting the Hollywood circuit this time around (their sixth to be exact) as they release their latest music video via MTV. The single "Grapevine Fires," has the guys "animated" about the latest from Narrow Stairs; "I'm a huge comic book fan, so there was that," bassist Harmer continued with MTV. "Plus, in my head, I couldn't see any kind of live-action video that wouldn't come off as heavy-handed or overwrought. So we knew what we didn't want it to be. Plus, we knew we should do a cameo, which meant we'd get to be animated, so that was a bonus." With the onset of the popularity of Narrow Stairs and their latest EP, the guys have added several more summer dates to their already extensive tour, bringing along Ra Ra Riot, Tegan and Sara, Andrew Bird and the New Pornographers in an intermixing ceremony that will also see the guys appearing with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl July 5th.
