Narrow Stairs

Search: Pity And Fear
by: Death Cab for Cutie

Release Date May 13, 2008
As a fan from the "Something about Airplanes" days, I have no problem labeling this the best Death Cab album yet. I was a bit worried after the post-Plans emo-crush on lead singer Ben.. and the breathy vocals he would exhibit on random love-lorn covers and tv appearences.. but this album is totally a masterpiece. I usually start with "You Can Do Better than Me" and my favorite song on the album, "Grapevine Fires." Then I start back from the beginning. The album might be a grower and not as big as "Plans" because their lead single has a 4.5 minute intro that some of the teenybopper fans don't want to sit through, but it's a solid album. Put it on in the background. One day you'll be hooked and realize they've surely outdone themselves here.

Flagpole Sitta

Search: Pity And Fear
by: Harvey Danger

Release Date September 22, 1998
I do have to say that "Flagpole Sitta" is one of my favorite songs of all-time. But buying this single doesn't make too much sense. Only if you are a HUGE Harvey Danger fan do you need this CD. Along with the hit, you'll also find the song "Wrecking Ball". It's a good song and quite different from the style of "Flagpole Sitta". But it's also on their full-length CD Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone. The only reason you should consider buying this single is if you're looking for rare Harvey Danger songs; that being "The Ballad Of The Tragic Hero (Pity And Fear)". This song you can't find anywhere else and it's hard to find a download of it. Believe me, I've tried.

I gave this CD-single 3 stars because ... Read More:
