Death Cab For Cutie performing "The Ghosts of Beverly Drive" Live on KCRW

Despite nearly two decades as a band, Death Cab for Cutie have embarked on a new journey with their new album, Kintsugi, their eighth full-length. Founding member and regular producer Chris Walla announced that he was leaving the band, leading them to work with an outside producer (in this case, Rich Costey) for the first time. They seem to have weathered the storm in fine fashion, soldiering on as a trio and performing new songs for us as they return to Morning Becomes Eclectic on the release day for their new album.

So sick, it's hard to find a band that sounds just as good live as they do on a record. Awesome song

[@definebruh3416]

Muse

[@erichughes3987]

Muse sounds even better live than on a record

[@erichughes3987]

***** Yea. and the guitar just sounds off somehow. almost out of tune.

[@erichughes3987]

***** Yea. And that's their fault. A professional band shouldn't run into problems like that. They should make sure everything is set up before they start. Not to shit on Death Cab because they are by second favorite band.

[@erichughes3987]

***** Nice. I love when musicians notice that someone is "tubing" their guitar before the start. Lmao sorry. but yea... same. What do you play?

[@p.s.5634]

I will never understand people who don't like this band

[@charismabros5352]

right

[@BlackScreenAmbience1]

ppl who dont like them alrdy loving them :)

[@MrJimmyTide]

I don't know why, I don't know why... ;)

[@coffee5736]

They think because their name is weird they'll automatically be bad.

[@siouxsiex5742]

More room for us at their shows

[@kenisinoregon]

Dave's guitar seems to be out of tune every time they play this song live. He does fix it after hitting it a few times

[@xinthisdiaryx]

kenisinoregon I think that’s the point

[@brianmeyer2946]

@@xinthisdiaryx i Think it sounds ok

[@nickrandles1102]

I've had this song on repeat for about a month now, it's a part of me. DCFC for life.

[@GbruAwesomeness]

I agree. I wish Chris walla would come back though...

[@davidnissim9203]

Jason McGerr (the drummer) is very underrated...

[@mr.6six621]

wow! his vocals are the same as on the CD.

[@adamjohnsonmusicvideos]

generally speaking, his vocals remain the most unaffected across all their albums. It's why their vocals speak so deeply to you, because they haven't layered a million effects over it to cover up anything

[@nc6095]

Why are there so many comments saying,"wow his vox are the same as on the album. " On dcfc vids? It is a band. He sings.

[@turbotaquitogoogle8095]

@@adamjohnsonmusicvideos Except for codes and keys

[@HotSoup2009]

@@nc6095 Most artists even ones you wouldn't suspect use layering and auto-tune/pitch-correcting is why people are saying that. He is actually just doing it raw, so there's your answer. It really isn't common to just go for it anymore without a plethora of effects.

[@TheFonz995]

Whoever hasn't seen this band live, you need to. Honestly one of the best bands I've ever seen.

[@jeremyshutrump7351]

agree, I've seen many live. they were by far my favorite show ever

[@siouxsiex5742]

Id slap my grandma for a ticket

[@eyo8766]

0:14 He always seems to have his guitar out of tune, but it just adds to the charm

"So let us not be lonesome Let us not be lonesome Lost in between our needs and wants."

[@davidmontoya9692]

My favorite song from the new album!

[@turbotaquitogoogle8095]

I'd say this and little wanderer are tops for me

[@jimmymoody9595]

Feel even happier to own a pair of ATH-M50Xs now :)

Some people still wear hand me downs from a long dead relative ... a great line in a DCFC song

[@AYoutubechannel1448]

[@alexiscarlsenwenzel8939]

This is perfection.

[@iliketoscreamLOUD]

Wtf was that pedal effect mess up? Or was it not a mess up? Lol still amazing and still my favorite band!

[@waakkeuppp]

Great performance

[@sofiacalderon5061]

That man bun, drives me crazy, tho.

[@travisjohnson7065]

The description calls them a trio, but there's like 5 of them playing the song.

[@mikethomas2191]

Meaning the 3 original members 😎

[@brianhurley1639]

keep up good work, i return to scenes off these crimes.

[@shawneejwb7107]

Anyone know what software Zac Rae (keys) is using there on his Macbook Pro?

[@braddasseymusic]

Still an awesome band.

[@nikolausandjennaprescott2476]

Love DCFC, but this mix sounds terrible..

[@ryannbakerbeats]

Way to make a really boring video for a great song.

[@marksme]

What a great fresh band with music that will last in your mind.

[@UmbrellaWatch]

some ghosts we need to have, if we are dead or not. Ive know this one for sometime now.

[@vitabrevis3662]

[@TokeyTheBear_AOE]

100% talent, no filler.
