We go back to the early days and quickly talk through Death Cab's collection of early demos: You Can Play These Songs With Chords, then we do our general thoughts and feelings on the band as a whole and wrap up with our ranking of their studio records and our personal top 10 songs. Also this one is so long that there are four music breaks, apologies! We had some weird technical difficulties to deal with, hence the wait on this, apologies for that as well! ^_^
