Death Cab for Cutie - TRANSATLANTICISM REACTION/REVIEW

[@austynrogers6932]

Since you did a reaction to this album. Give up by the postal service is an absolute must listen.

[@modernitykills]

my parents were at a death cab concert the night transatlanticism came out. such a great album.

[@Lebowski55]

This is one of the pillars of early 2000s indie (slightly emo) rock

[@juanantz]

16:40 And that therapy is called 'Nightdriving' 😊. You don't even need to have to go anywhere specific, just drive at night a little bit just to have a good time. There's specific music for that. I would strongly recommend you to react to the album 'Nocturnal' from the band 'The Midnight'. It was my introduction to the Synthwave genre and it's my favourite one for driving at night.

[@mercurydylan899]

Saw DCFC/Postal service a few months ago as they did a 20th anniversary full album show for this and Postal Service’s Give Up. And it was one of the most emotional, nostalgic, and heartbreaking shows I’ve ever seen.

[@ph0biLOVESYOU]

my mom loved them and went to their first ever show back in the 2000's. even got to meet the band lmao they really are amazing

[@taylorjohnson763]

bro we need a Cap'n Jazz reaction

[@charmustdiee]

YESSSS

[@JimGio]

LET’S GOOOOO HUGE DUB Edit: this is my favorite album of all time and I’m glad you liked it. I really think it’s a grower. The more you come back to this one the more you realize how brilliantly it walks the line of being very smart and eloquently written and also being mainstream indie emo. Also it’s the perfect soundtrack for heartbreak and Autumn, two things I got to experience at once the first time I heard this one.

[@JaedonTalksDynasty]

Plans >

[@shadyisshady9897]

the lyric about “fleeing the scene, in your hand you held a smoking gun, and on the floor lay the one you said you loved” hit me so hard bro. straight BAR

[@ZenixRulez]

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MY GUY a few recommendations: Ghosts of the Great Highway - Sun Kil Moon SMILE :D - Porter Robinson (pop-punk, pop, electronic) Process - Sampha (experimental r&b, great production) Koi No Yokan - Deftones (very heavy, sexier and heavier radiohead imo) Hypochondriac - Brakence (very experimental emo rap, glitch pop) Reading Writing And Arithmetic - The Sundays (the smiths ish, with beautiful female vocals)

[@gabewilson81]

Sun kil moon yes!

[@marsh23600]

deftones! ❤

[@MisterTaylor235]

Recommending "Midnight Organ Fight" by Frightened Rabbit. In fact you can't go wrong with any of their albums. Stunning songwriting by the late, great, Scott Hutchison.

[@MB-ih6co]

Good choice, I need to revisit that album. RIP Scott.

[@thruadapt290]

Would love to see you react to The Hotelier - Home, Like Noplace Is There!

[@nuke9915]

if you're looking for emo rec, i cannot recommend Home, Like Noplace Is There by The Hotelier enough. It's so fucking good. the raw emotion in the vocals and lyrics is so strong.

[@gabewilson81]

This would be a great segway into 2010’s emo, such a fucking good album. I’d love to see him react to “macseal- yeah,no, i know” also!

[@xiuxiuenjoyer]

you should listen to relationship of command by at the drive-in‼️‼️

[@spirit_theyarehere]

omg please yes

[@angryprimalbug5417]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

[@b00jen81]

ATDI SOOOO under rated

[@whatdothlife4660]

That album is perfect for reactions.

[@cursedsk1y]

Here's some great Japanese albums I recommend reacting to next! - Happy Bivouac and or Little Busters by The Pillows (phenomenal j-rock and grunge albums from start to finish) - HIGHVISION or Futurama by Supercar (phenomenal indietronica that is very catchy with some shoegaze elements thrown in) - Hikari no kakera by Walrus (one of my favorite shoegaze albums ever with crushing lofi production with some of the most euphoric vocals I've ever heard)

[@meatgrinder9506]

Number girl, toe, the cabs?

[@jneigh727]

YES HAPPY BIVOUAC

[@timlarsson]

Skimmed the comments but couldn't see it mentioned: almost every track has a transition into the next - including the last song transitioning back into the first song! I always liked that detail. And if you are into really neat transitions between songs: "Mew - ...and the glass handed kites", can't recommend it enough :)

[@JoshHinrichs-vv2ft]

Bro I’ll cry this is in my top 3 of all time LOL You should react to a Pinegrove album. I’m sure you’d really love it

[@skylofttheshadowcast4636]

PINEGROVE

[@JoshHinrichs-vv2ft]

Check out Plans by death cab!

[@AndreJHoward]

This was the soundtrack to my 20s. really glad you reacted to it! :)

[@PrototheDodo]

dude you should 100% check out their second (We Have the Facts And We’re Voting Yes) OR next album (Plans). Both have dif vibes, Plans is closer to Trans, while We Have the Facts might have the midwest emo/slowcore sound you’re after ;) So glad you got to this! Glad you enjoyed it as much as you did haha

[@musicman6555]

Big Ws, now you gotta listen to the postal service

[@squidsnchips]

well now you have to do the postal service smags (same front man, more electronic indie than rock)

[@cwoveryy]

rly hope someday you'll listen to the lamb as effigy by sprain .. you made a poll for it abt 10 months ago and it got 3rd !! its my favorite album oat and means so much to me and it'd be rly cool to see that

[@shitkitty147]

That album crushed me into the ground 👌🔥

[@The_Jnrel]

This is the last album reaction I expected to see today, always happy to see more Transatlanticism praise

[@meatsuit6922]

It's weird, I listened to this prior to me discovering Midwest emo, so I was like wtf no it's not, but in relistening, it's definitely got a little touch of American Football in there Gotta recommend the album What It Takes To Move Forward by Empire Empire I Was A Lonely Estate, kind of the perfect middle point between this and AF

[@theGloamingfan94]

Some great Joni Mitchell albums you should check out 1. Blue 2. For the Roses 3. Court and Spark 4. The Hissing of Summer Lawns 5. Hejira Those 5 are generally regarded as her best records, though I think her album “Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter” is also a perfect record and doesn’t get the love it deserves.

[@MCharcuterie]

Lesser Matters by the radio dept would be unreal, clinging to a scheme also great

[@samihaddadin42]

got to see them at a festival over the summer, they did this album front to back and then Ben Gibbard came back out as Postal Service and did Give Up front to back, beautiful experience

[@mr.noride7226]

There is childhood favorite song of mine by Death Cab for Cutie called Soul Meets Body which is from their Plans album. That album isn’t as good as Transatlanticism, but Soul Meets Body still remains by favorite song by them.

[@MetallicOpeth]

Lightness is such an underrated gem. Love that tune

[@mitchellcomixofficial1238]

Before Time - Omni, Yabby You - One Love, One Heart For the new recommendation, Tanya Tagaq is an experimental Inuit throat singer from the Arctic region of Canada. It's a completely different way of singing than anything from a more European tradition. In particular, I'd suggest her 2016 album Retribution since it combines throat singing with electronic, rock and industrial ambient production

[@daddylafe7016]

The perfect fall record 🍂

[@dwimplepeen]

Fun fact, my mom went to school with the singer Ben Gibbard.

[@whatdothlife4660]

I love your chatter's username: Nostalgia Cleric

[@The_RedVIII]

This was easily one of my favorites when I was a teen. *cough* gotta leave another reminder to check out more Sigur Ros and some M83

[@gharris2389]

I strongly suggest you try Yo La Tengo "And then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out". First 8 songs are an awesome sequence.

[@colin8007]

death of an interior decorator hits hard every time

[@owenequinox6]

I think you would also really like Hover by the sleepover disaster! One of the most underrated bands and albums I've ever heard :)

[@iannetherland6217]

I high recommend you react to coastal grooves by blood orange. It is such a good album and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Basically all the songs are good

[@ijustneedmyself]

Ooh yeah, you don't see many Blood Orange reactions!

[@GabrielCosta13072]

Julia Holter - Something in the Room She Moves

[@comeasurotmg8387]

Gonna keep recommending Ben Folds Five- The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner until it happens

[@beepst]

We Have the Facts and We're Voting Yes is also worth checking. It's my favorite one of them and heavily underrated.

[@_lezzogs_]

You should react to "Shelf Life - Hello, It's Halloween" would be nice for the autumn season :) it has it's indie folk elements like alex g. Appreciate you and your videos!

[@iwasneverherenorthere]

One of my favorite albums ever.

[@The_RedVIII]

Also, Plans is another Death Cab album that is absolutely fantastic. Probably just as good as Transantlanticism. Would love to see a reaction. (more Sigur Ros and M83 are still my most requested though)

[@fichom1240]

day 1 of recommending prolly my favorite album ever recorded, Segara by Anomalyst, truly underrated gem by this very unknown indonesian band

[@WraithLVR]

Smags I’ll do something freaky for another Adrienne Lenker album 😅🙄

[@CoolcatzCorner]

I think you'd really like the album Superunknown by Soundgarden

[@fullcol]

WE WIN

[@JamesKovacic]

This album will make you miss something you’ve never had 😅

[@shiv2033]

Hey Smags, big fan from India. I have been watching your videos from a long time now. You have reacted to English, Spanish, Brazilian, Japanese and music in so many other languages. So I felt recommending a Hindi album which comes from a beautiful movie called Udaan. In India there is no culture of releasing standalone albums. The album is also called Udaan by Amit Trivedi, it would be amazing if you could give it a try and respect the diversity in music like you always do.

[@The_RedVIII]

And yes, I agree with everyone, Postal Service is a must listen. One of the best albums ever made!

[@jaydestone54]

Please please please do Postal Service! Man, I really forgot how great this album is. Ben Gibbard was on top of his game in this era.

[@Badonka_donk]

After the Magic plsss

[@TonsMoreCowbell]

Gotta check out Cindy Lee -Diamond Jubilee if you haven’t already. AOTY AOTDecade

[@shadyisshady9897]

hello smags !! you NEED to react to Today I Laid Down by bl4ck m4rket c4rt. all instruments vocals and production by a 17 yr old in his bedroom. he sadly ended his life just months after releasing this but his talent was undeniable. PLEASE REACT we need to get his music out there more

[@b00jen81]

"okay, xylophone" 🧡

[@Zanexous]

One of my dad’s favorite albums

[@dontcallmeemo_99]

I'm going to suggest: Yours As Fast As Mine by The Main Drag. An amazing album by an underrated band that was definitely inspired by this band.

[@royalmafiagt2079]

Would love to see you react to The Power Of Failing by Mineral some real emotion there

[@feli6277]

I want to see more 2023/2024 albums/projects :D

[@arealhuman2409]

Hey Smags... YOU should be a cutie and listen to "Wrong" by NoMeansNo! One of, if not THE best (hardcore) punk record with fun lyrics and a super cool sound, especially with the bass. I think you could like it (:

[@benlevitan9405]

Yo check out we got the facts and we’re voting yes it’s such a good album by death cab

[@xhibba5071]

Yuuuuuup it’s aalll over my screen now thanks Snacks
