There's something about Death Cab for Cutie/The Postal Service where, as much as I try explaining to someone else how my life feels and what it would sound like, they nailed it.
Like....nailed it.
This isn't supposed to sound depressing at all, but this band's sound is the sound of me reflecting on growing up in high school and college. Maybe because they were there the whole time, but I don't know, it's difficult to put into words how the melodies and lyrics and just overall vibe you get when you listen to them.....that's me, that's how I think, how I feel, what runs through my head emotionally, it's everything I've experienced and am experiencing right now all at once.
Like I said, it's difficult to put this into words, but somehow they are the musical version of my life thus far. Every album makes me remember what it was like to walk around in various seasons in Williamsville and Kent when I was alone, contemplating things and being happy or completely lost, depressed or over excited. It's just.....well, I have no other way to put it, strange.
::shrugs:: Well I have no idea where I was going with that.
