Members Seth Carmody Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Well, spending all day on a tiny motorbike sounds appealing, but the who delivering letter part and that big yellow helmet they wear is definitely not cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members w.p.corgan Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Death cab are better to me... a couple of the tracks on Give Up are okay, but the majority of the postal service tracks just make me cringe... As for death cab, i love Something About Airplanes. Quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members drasp Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Death Cab & Postal Service are great, as is most of Dntel's solo stuff. BTW - associating P.S. with Garden State is lame. That's like bringing up Simon & Garfunkel & someone says, "I hate Mike Nichols!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArrMatey Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 death cab and postal service are good. one complements the other: the rock and the electro pop stuff on each side.Not recommended live (I have seen postal service live, it was the only gig I ever paid for and walked out).But musically it is a great breath of fresh air on a sunny day.

Members fusionid Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 postal service really depends where you live. Here in Norcal I like it because the mail lady is very nice to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tenine Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 i can't stand them. i am totally against that whole genre of people who think garden state is the greatest movie ever BWAHAHAHA!It's so true.Recent films that I would say are some ways similar but millions of times better include -Lost in translation,Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,Amelie.

Members ArrMatey Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 You walked out? They were that bad?!It's more that this kind of music is def not appropriate for live event. I don't want to watch a guy push knobs all night long. The interaction is poor. That's why for me electro bands where there is one or two person on the laptop is useless for live performances.I can watch that on video and honestly I never would spend my time doing that...and I have easily seen a few thousands of gigs in my life.Not fit for live stuff. I am curious how it's going to be when I see Air this friday. Now THAT is a band! :love: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Televator Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 The Postal Service is like Death Cab for Cutie set to electronic beats. Personally, I really liked their first album when it came out, but if you find DCFC to be a little to twee, you might not dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DonaldDemon Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 +1 I really liked them, more so than death cab.. but like death cab, got a little boring after a whileI agree. I like both bands about the same but their albums only get listened to on certain occasions. It's not something I can really just play out. I guess they sound best when feeling down.

Members vteckid22 Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Postal Service is awesome. Yes, their song was used on the garden state OST, but that doesnt mean that they are immediately a horrible band.Postal Service= Garden State= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
