Death Cab for Cutie
Death Cab for Cutie Live Performance at Nos Primavera Sound Festival in Porto
In 2015, while performing at the NOS Primavera Sound festival in Porto, Portugal, Death Cab for Cutie was in a dynamic phase of their career, having just released their eighth studio album, "Kintsugi," the previous year. This album marked a significant chapter for the band as it was their first without founding member Chris Walla, whose departure left a unique imprint on their sound. The band's performance at this festival came as they were still gaining momentum from "Kintsugi," which delved into themes of heartbreak and resilience, a fitting backdrop for the high-energy festival scene. Interestingly, this live recording captures the band at a moment when they were solidifying their place in the indie rock landscape, all while navigating the transition in their lineup.
