About the Album: Death Cab fans buckle up. “Former Lives,” which Death Cab for Cutie he will release as Benjamin Gibbard, will feature 12 previously unreleased tracks the Death Cab For Cutie frontman has written over the course of his career. This is also the first album Gibbard has put forth since his divorce from MPDG du-jour Zooey Deschanel. Post breakup albums FTW. Out on 10/16/12.

Track Spotlight: “Bigger Than Love” featuring Aimee Mann is a surprisingly sunny sounding ditty where the two act out the parts of an estranged couple dissecting their history and arguing over possessions over a solid, heartbeat type beat.
