NEW DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE MUSIC!?!
That was my exact response when I woke up this morning and checked my Facebook [a good friend of mine left me a link on my wall, thank you so much Tricia].
Anyway, it’s true. Death Cab for Cutie is releasing the companion album to Narrow Stairs on March 31, titled Open Doors [EP]. Three songs are available for streaming at Stereogum.com, “Little Bribes”, “A Diamond and a Tether”, and “My Mirror Speaks”.
Open Doors EP
The EP’s Track List:
1. Little Bribes
2. A Diamond and a Tether
3. My Mirror Speaks
4. I Was Once a Loyal Lover
5. Talking Birds [Demo]
The songs released so far have been a wide range of the same ol’ Death Cab. [Upbeat acoustic guitar, dark/sad song proclaiming failing love, and something in between]
The EP is available for pre-order off of iTunes and Death Cab’s website now, and will be available for digital purchase on 3/31 [a physical release will follow in suit].
It makes sense why these songs didn’t make it on to Narrow Stairs, but it’s good we get the songs in the end anyway.

[updated 03.26.09] – the fourth track, “I Was Once a Loyal Lover” was released today and it’s not bad. All of the songs have different vibes to them. I like it.
