Death Cab for Cutie

On February 12, 2000, Death Cab for Cutie performed at the Breakroom in Seattle, capturing a moment in their early career when they were still emerging from the indie scene. This live recording features their poignant sound, which was gaining momentum after the release of 'Something About Airplanes' in 1998 and before 'We Have the Facts and We're Voting Yes' came out in 2000. By this point, the band was already building a dedicated following, and their emotionally resonant lyrics and unique sound were starting to catch the ears of a broader audience. Interestingly, this period was pivotal in shaping their future sound, as the band began to experiment with more intricate compositions while keeping their raw, heartfelt essence intact. Who knew this Seattle band would go on to become such a staple in alternative rock?
