Recording of New Death Cab Album Soon Underway

With 2 weeks of pre-production already under their belt, Death Cab for Cutie are getting ready to start recording their second album for Atlantic Records, the followup to the almost-platinum selling Plans. This upcoming album may also be the first not to feature DCFC guitarist Chris Walla (The Decemberists, Nada Surf, The Postal Service, Hot Hot Heat) as producer. A Spring 2008 release is being considered.
