This year will see the release of a new album indie rockers Death Cab For Cutie, delivering Kintsugi this coming March 31st via Atlantic. Today, Ben Gibbard and co. have shared their new ballad “Black Sun” via a lyric video.
The song is set to be another band classic in years to come thanks to its lurking sound that builds to a fantastically fuzzy guitar solo. The production is very eclectic but it’s very much a Death Cab track at heart.
Stream the new song below. The band has also announced some tour dates for a world tour starting in April, which you can find underneath the video.
