The Postal Service & Death Cab for Cutie to Commemorate 20th Anniversary Co-Headline Tour with Brand New Colony / We Looked Like Giants 7”

As the final dates of their monumental 20th anniversary tour approach, The Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie commemorate their 2003 landmark albums once more:  This time in the form of a double A-side single, Brand New Colony / We Looked Like Giants 7”,  featuring The Beths and Car Seat Headrest paying tribute to two beloved songs from Give Up (Sub Pop) and Transatlanticism (Barsuk).

On one A-side is New Zealand indie rockers, The Beths’ delightfully bright cover of “Brand New Colony.” The sonically brilliant reinterpretation features fellow New Zealander, producer and multi-instrumentalist Pickle Darling’s signature finger pluckings and dulcet keys. 

The other A-side features alt-rock mainstay Car Seat Headrest’s propulsive guitar-driven take on Death Cab for Cutie fan favorite “We Looked Like Giants.”

The double A-side 7” is available for preorder today and ready to stream now:  https://music.subpop.com/brandnewcolony_welookedlikegiants

The Give Up/Transatlanticism 20th Anniversary Tour will come to a close with three nights at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on October 13, 15 and 17.
