Description:

2009 EP from the Indie favorites containing four new tracks and one unreleased demo. The band's platinum selling album Plans was a huge success, which came after their DVD collection Directions, which sold over 30,000 copies. Following up those was no easy task, but Narrow Stairs has already been praised by MTV.com as the band's most daring and adventurous effort to date. Now, although the four new tracks are a little different from those on the last album, The Open Door can be considered a companion piece to Narrow Stairs.

5emo ep  Feb 28, 2010
This is my first album from dcfc. I became familiar with dcfc from the radio. The first four songs are currently on my Ipod while I did not care for the 5th song. I accantly ordered it twice so I wound up giving it to my sister and she enjoyed it also.

4a special EP  Sep 18, 2009
typical DCFC- catchy hooks, clever lyrics and a little piece of angst. Not their finest work, but certainly their best EP since FORBIDDEN LOVE

5Death Cab May Be Peaking  Aug 27, 2009
I'm not a Death Cab-listening Orange County-watching fanatic, but threw my hat in the ring a few years back with Transatlanticism. The Sound of Settling was good all-around, and I liked the lyrics to a few other tunes, but overall the disc fell quickly out of my rotation, and I assumed that I just wouldn't ever like them as much as some do. An ex-girlfriend was into their older stuff, but cursory listens didn't make me think otherwise, and I kept my attitude up through the Plans era. Then I was haunted. David Dye, a man who I will never stop giving props to, even as he continues to latch onto some music I just can't stand, played "I Will Possess Your Heart" a few times on his show--forgoing the radio edit and using a precious eight minutes of his show to get the song heard.
I liked Narrow Stairs a lot, but not even close to how much I love this short piece. "Little Bribes" is my standout, which makes it a bit front-loaded, but I like the whole thing. I love smart pop music, and Ben Gibbard finally got in sync with me when he wrote these tunes. Huzzah!

2Very Dull by Death Cab standards  Jul 18, 2009
This disc is a companion piece, which is good because it doesn't stand up very well on it's own. There is no innovation or much tonal interest to speak of here, as DCFC have previously produced (Plans), and I'm frankly surprised that this release has as good a rating as it does (a frequent occurence on Amazon). It's musically solid but inherently boring. Not every release can be brilliant, though. This is essentially a money-making release. Check it out at the library if you think you have to hear it.

5this should be illegal it's so addictive  Jul 10, 2009
I think these songs are just so perfect. I don't know how else to say it. I wouldn't change a thing about any of them. This EP is addictive and I pretty much have to listen to it each day.
