“Benjamin Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie has always been a daydreamer. But on Give Up — his first album with laptop techno whiz Jimmy Tamborello, under the name Postal Service — Gibbard leaves behind the dreamy indie rock of his regular band in favor of a cuddly little New Wave reverie. Songs such as "Clark Gable," about making home movies with your ex, and "Nothing Better," a he-said/she-said numb”
“Ten years after its release and subsequent appearance on so many soundtracks and commercials, the influential debut album by the synth-pop project of Ben Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello has been reissued. The deluxe set includes remixes and covers by Matthew Dear, the Shins, and others.”
