Okay, before you vote, I'd like you to read this. As some of you may know, Death Cab and The Postal Service have the same lead singer, so I was just wondering which of the two you like better since each band has the same voice but different sound.

Now if you've only heard of the Postal Service (since they've been getting some airplay lately) and you haven't even heard of Death Cab For Cutie please don't vote, unless you've listened to both bands recently.

I'm actually fond of both bands, but I was just wondering what everyone else thought, too.

Mucho love,

Alyson

oh man, ive been meaning to make this topic for ages but never got around to it

i think the postal service, but really it depends on my mood

I have to say Postal Service, I listening them now

nicki said exactly what i was going to. i'm starting to like death cab more and more though... and my mom just told me they're performing on the oc .

^when?

I think I'm the only white kid in the world who isn't hooked on The O.C.
But I'd have to say Postal Service.

definitely death cab. A lot of people say postal service, but they've never heard of death cab.

They've been mentioned tons of times on the OC and have been used in many of their soundtracks. Everyone knows about Death Cab For Cutie now.

no, im proud to say ive only seen half an episode, and that was with james while i was in england

no, i'm not either.

i can't choose. i love them both equally as if they were my own children.

I like Death Cab more.

i would have to say i like Death Cab for Cutie more than Postal service, even tho Postal service is also really good

i watched it once and i predicted the ending correctly half way through the show. and i never watched it again.


yeah i know, on the episode i watched they were played in the background, and there's always those articles about how "the oc is so indie" and they're mentioned, but i still find it weird. i guess i shouldn't be surprised since i also heard them and the shins in american eagle yesterday .

blasphemy!

the shins were playing in american eagle? ...wow, righty then. I would have to say that I prefer the postal service. I just like their sound about ten times better.

death cab.

I can't choose- I like them both so much equally.

The postal service, honestly.
I enjoy Jenny Lewis' background vocals, and the postal service is a bit "faster"... iuno, it's hard to explain.

Amen to that, Tracy! AMEN!

I wanna hear some DCFC and Postal Service have the same singer? Wow I didn't know that.. Someone give me some Death Cab music.

Oh crap I love them both so much. But I will have to go with TPS because I have heard more of their songs.

death cab for cutie, definetly.

Proud to say I've only seen one episode of the OC because my friend forced me to watch Mischa Barton make out with some chick.

I didn't know they mentioned (and played) Death Cab on the OC, but I did hear them play The Sound of Settling during the credits of Entertainment Tonight. O_O

Really it's either you've heard one or the other, I haven't met many people who know both bands.

Currently I'd have to say I like Death Cab better, simply because I love their song Photobooth. Not only that, but the radio station I always listen to keeps overplaying Such Great Heights.

Also, their sounds are noticeably different, like Postal Service has a sort of techno sound because they use a synthesizer.

Just my two cents. Err or maybe 5.

Mucho love

Alyson

i've never watched an episode of the oc the most i've seen was maybe a few seconds because my best friend was watching it

i like death cab for cutie more, the postal service is so overrated

probably the postal service. I think their a little more moody.

Death Cab. Hands down.

xo, Pauline

HECK YES!!

Anyway, I still like DCFC, but I like how the Postal Service is a a more "techno" sound to it. Again, I cant explain it in only words.

I would say Death Cab, even though I do find some of their songs boring.

no death cab songs are NOT boring. maybe you just don't understand them.

I cant stand the O.C.

Uhmmm anyways....
I'd say Death Cab
But sometimes I'd rather listen to The Postal Service
So it all depends...

Yeah, I like the techno-ness of The Postal Service. But I also Death Cab just as much too hah.

eeeee i love death cab for cutie!!!!!

^totally didnt know that


^ and agress with u

SOME, I said. and maybe that's my opinion? People have their opinions and they're entitled to them. So maybe, you should back off.

yeah that's your opinion, but maybe if you actually understood the lyrics they wouldn't be boring to you.

Oh. Drama.

Anyway

Really, you didn't know? I had always thought it was obvious.

A lot of people say The Postal Service's songs are a bit techno-y (even I do) but Death Cab uses beats/synthesizers in some of their songs too, so it's hard to call.

Both bands just have a really distinct different sound -- maybe it's because TPS is a bit more upbeat while Death Cab is more mellow and serious? Ack, I'm getting lost in my own gibberish.

Mucho love,

Alyson

i think both of these bands are amazing.
The Postal Service is a little more..new age...and different.

death cab is more emotional, and the lyrics are amazing.

just my opinon. they both have a lot to them.

dcfc. i love the postal service, but dcfc just fits my mood more often.

im more into the postal service

The postal service..
they have unique music.

i had actually heard of the postal service before death cab. but also when id heard of them they were still considered underground, too

haha me too

i'm the same way

i think a lot of people are saying postal service, but they've probably never heard of death cab.

Or maybe they have and they just like the Postal Service better. Seriously, let people have an opinion without you insulting them.


And it sickens me that The Shins were playing in American Eagle. "Scuse me while I go throw up.

^^
<3 american eagle

and <3 the shins

out of the two, definately postal service

I am letting people have their own opinions. I was just saying.

No, you were telling them that their opinion sucked and was wrong.

Lately I've been addicted to Title And Registration by DCFC, but I still think the Postal Service is better. ;)

No, I was saying that most people were saying postal service because they've probably never heard of death cab. I was not saying people's opinions sucked.
