Line Of Best Fit The fact that Elsinor and Barsuk, two relatively small labels, conspired to co-release Something About Airplanes should give some indication as to its quality. It's a solid, emotive, and frequently amazing indie rock record that foreshadows Death Cab for Cutie's eventual ascent into the mainstream. Sonically, the band falls somewhere on the dreamier and more pop-oriented end of Built to Spill's sound (particularly on Keep It Like a Secret), alongside the Posies' most pensive tracks, or with Delta Haymax -- that is, dynamic, melodic, and somewhat atmospheric Northwestern rock. What's important, however, is that the composition, arrangement, and perfect vocal harmonies of Something About Airplanes are all hugely effective; the band uses light touches of flute, synth, or cello to add the necessary textures to its well-crafted pop songs, and the result has a consistently impressive and thoroughly engaging quality that rivals Built to Spill's Keep It Like a Secret. Which is quite a complement -- but tracks like "Bend to Squares" and "Pictures in an Exhibition" deserve as much adulation as one can offer. ~ All Music "It's no exaggeration to say Something About Airplanes is the future of music. Part of me hopes no one will listen to Death Cab for Cutie, but Sesame Street's Big Bird taught me I shouldn't be selfish, and a bigger part of me knows they're due at least household name status. Already playing to rabid audiences in their corner of the country, as well as this year's North by Northwest, they've shared stages with Harvey Danger, Built to Spill and Imperial Teen to name but a few." ~ Audiogalaxy Something About Airplanes has the aura of a young band still crafting its own voice, but working fertile ground and already producing some impressive results. ~ CMJ SHIPPING TO USA ONLY Buyer Pays Shipping $3.99 1st CD $3.99... each additional $1.50 CDs will only be combined with other CDs or DVDs To qualify for the combined discount, all items must be purchased together, paid for with 1 payment, and shipped all together in 1 shipment.
