Death Cab for Cutie

Released in 2011, Death Cab for Cutie's album "Codes and Keys" had just dropped before the live recording of "Crooked Teeth" on November 18, 2011, at The Ballroom in Birmingham. This album marked a notable transition for the band, as it was their first without founding member Chris Walla, who later departed after decades with the group. The sound on "Codes and Keys" leaned more towards a bright, electronic vibe, which resonated well with fans and showcased their evolution. During this live performance in Birmingham, you could feel the electric energy in the air, despite the rough audio quality. The band was riding high on the success of their critically acclaimed work, engaging audiences with their heartfelt lyrics and intricate melodies, making this show a memorable experience for those lucky enough to be there.
