Average Rating:
 Rating:  - People don't like this?!This is without a doubt the best bit of Death Cab you can have on a cd. While only being 3 songs, it is perfect. The first two are fantastic and I'm not going to say much about them. I don't see why any Death Cab fan wouldn't like them. The third song, and in my opinion the best Death Cab song ever, is something it seems people like to hate. It's over 12 minutes and most of it is the same riff repeated over and over again. At first this may seem ridiculous and boring, but I assure that it gets better the more you listen to it. It's such a beautiful line and I feel it could go on forever and it still would be okay. Give the song (and the rest of the EP) a chance. Rating: - Some of their smoothest dabblingSlow-burning tribute from Deathcab produces surprisingly tender results, broken up nicely by the up-tempo Bjork cover, also done nicely. Probably not a favorite of some fans due to the minimalist nature, but given the sensitive refrain from faster paced material, some very under appreciated work. The very disdain for the extended instrumental of the Stability proves that many fans are holding prejudice, as the track displays nary a hint of pretentiousness, possibly holding more promise for those that do not belong to this rabid fanbase. Rating:  - Only for the die hard fanThis EP is very curious in that most of the trademarks of Death Cab's sound are nowhere to be found. I can't say that I know that Bjork song that they've covered, but in general, I don't care much for Death Cab's cover songs because they tend to play them as fans, rather than playing them as if they were Death Cab songs. 20th Century Towers is a fairly forgettable number, and while Stability is a good song, now that we have a more concise reworking available on Plans (The Stable Song), its lost a bit of its sheen. If you love everything Death Cab has done, there's probably something for you here. But if you're looking for an entry into what the big deal with these guys is all about, I would start with something else. Rating: - yuckSounds like every other I'm such a sensitive sad male garbage that is flooding corporate radio stations. Boo hoo. The bravado of these people to take a beautiful song (all is full of love) and puke on it. It really makes me sick to my stomach. Rating: - Gorgeous EPThe Stability EP is perhaps the most controversial release in the Death Cab catalog. Although it came out around the time of The Photo Album (appearing in original pressings), it abandoned that album's more propulsive nature and retreated to a sound somewhere along the lines of We Have The Facts... as seen through the eyes of Low. The title track is perhaps the most controversial of the tunes here, moving at well past the 12 minute mark. And although the latter portion of the song is a single guitar line repeated over and over, there are some gorgeous building synth swells the add a sort-of epic quality to the tune. And that guitar line is simple, but pretty anyway. If anything drags, it might be "20th Century Towers," but when in the right ... Read More: |
