Death Cab For Cutie

Distinguidos concuidadanos, las bandas de moda no son solamente aquellas de la escena indie que han firmado con un sello discográfico multinacional. Para el caso de esta banda, que contó en su octava producción con la notoria colaboración de Alex Turner de Arctic Monkeys, DCFC y su disco de 2008 Narrows Stairs alabado en radios chilenas como un disco antológico, es una placa que pone todo el énfasisi en la lírica de sus canciones. Como antecedente es el segundo albúm fichado con Atlantic Records, es decir, definitivamente no es que se hayan vendido, solamente han decidido registrar y ser reconocidos en todo el orbe como una gran banda. Llega a nuestros oídos desde Seattle USA y no suenan a estadounidenses...acá les dejo la letra de una de sus maravilllosas canciones

"I Will Follow You Into The Dark"

Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
'cause we'll hold each other soon
In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark
