Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: With songs equal to those on We Have the Facts and a lush, brilliant production that continues what The Photo Album started, Transatlanticism is easily Death Cab's best record to date. Much attention has duly been focused on doe-eyed singer/lyricist Ben Gibbard, co-star of the Postal Service phenomenon, and Ben's voice is as strange, beautiful, and as strong as ever on these songs, which deal with the difficulties of long-distance relationships. But guitarist/producer Chris Walla once again proves himself to be the band's secret weapon, layering subtle sonic touches throughout Transatlanticism, which is most definitely a "headphone record." This Seattle quartet is one of the only bands to really have picked up the intelligent, emotionally resonant, and guitar-driven indie-pop torch that Built to Spill briefly lit in the mid-1990s (before themselves heading off to the stoner-rock territory). DCFC themselves seem poised to finally break out to a wider audience, and they truly deserve it with this disc. --Mike McGonigal

I recently watched their Transatlanticism tour "Drive Well Sleep Carefully" on HBO and loved the songs. Normally I don't purchase an entire album unless I'm familiar with the artist and their music. So, I was pleasantly surprised by this purchase because it is a very good album. Other than just liking the sound of the band, I also enjoyed the enthusiasm that is evident when listening to their songs, like they really love what they're doing. I'm not good at giving reviews, I just know what I like, and I definitely like this album. I will probably end up buying all of their albums.

This is a great example of Ben Gibbard's introspective lyrics and songwriting ability. The song "Transatlantticism" is one of, if not the best DCfC songs. I was unaware of them until the song was featured on "Six Feet Under"....from there on out, I was hooked on their music. What a breathe of fresh air!

I love death cab. thier album plans "awesome" their other albums, "sweet" but this one lacks a certian something that causes it to lose much of the flare so common on death cab cds. their beats are more rock, less of that free spirited tune that made you want to bounce your head to the rythm. if you like death cab go ahead buy it. if your into that whole rock-hardrock scene, go ahead. but it left me with a deep sorrow in the pit of my stomach aching to once again know the death cab that had become dead to me.

A gem! I highly recommend this album to everyone I know! I got this album about 5 years ago I guess but I still listen to it! If you haven't listened to this cd yet, you don't know what you're missing!
