This is by far the best album Death Cab has ever released. Going back to their roots and sounding more like We Have the Facts... than Plans, it opens up with the beautifully paced Bixby Canyon Bridge and proceeds into the eerily creepy single I Will Possess Your Heart; a song I didn't like at first listen, but grew on me very soon after. I agree with another reviewer that these 2 songs alone are worth the purchase, but the brilliantness continues. The album proceeds with more upbeat, poppy stuff (not a bad thing) like No Sunlight and Your New Twin Sized Bed, but I think it really shines the most with the slower-paced stuff like Talking Bird, Grapevine Fires, and Cath. It basically has something for everyone, the new fans who think this is the 2nd album Death Cab's put out, and us old folks who have been listening since the dawn of the millennium. This is a fantastic thing, as it helps keep the fanbase diverse, growing, learning and opening them up to different sounds. I really believe it's the best album they've released.
