Death Cab For Cutie Announcement

After a gruelling touring schedule since the release of their seventh and stunning album CODES AND KEYS, Death Cab For Cutie finally set their sights on Australia for live shows in February 2012.

The band last toured Australia in 2009, selling shows out well in advance, promoting their Grammy award nominated sixth album NARROW STAIRS and have surpassed all expectations on this new record with it's sonic exploration and lyrical ambition.

Death Cab for Cutie are one of the few bands who have been able to ignore the perils of fashion and popularity and stay completely focussed on writing great music on their own terms.

Each album has shown progression and movement from the last but has been able to retain fierce loyalty and respect from fans who totally understand that they are the go-to band for powerful, melodic, complex and emotive indie pop/rock that is always sophisticated and so effortlessly cool.

Death Cab For Cutie are Ben Gibbard, Chris Walla, Nick Harmer and Jason McGerr.

LA TIMES: The band's musical ambitions have grown right alongside their audience. The songs from Codes and Keys were their most experimental while staying effortlessly melodic.

The new album CODES AND KEYS is out now.

The 'KEYS AND CODES REMIX EP' features seven new remixed tracks from the band's critically acclaimed new album, "CODES AND KEYS", which debuted at #6 on the ARIA chart in Australia. Death Cab For Cutie have been revealing one new remix each week through the bands official website and SoundCloud page and have already announced remixes by Cut Copy, The 2 Bears as well as Yeasayer, with more to come in the lead up to the November 25 release.
