“Gold Rush” also comes accompanied by an official music video (watch here), directed by Alex Southam (alt-J, Mumford & Sons). Death Cab for Cutie recently made their debut performance of “Gold Rush” on CBS’ The Late Show.
“Thank You for Today” was produced and mixed by Rich Costey (Fiona Apple, Franz Ferdinand, Muse), who also produced the band’s last album, the Grammy nominated “Kintsugi.”
The new album sees longtime bandmates Ben Gibbard, Nick Harmer, and Jason McGerr joined in the studio by new members Dave Depper and Zac Rae. Depper and Rae have both been part of Death Cab’s touring band since 2015.
Death Cab for Cutie will celebrate their new album with a fall tour. The dates run September-October (see below). One dollar from each ticket purchased through the band’s website will go towards The Aurora Commons – a Seattle based non-profit organization which offers a safe space for unhoused neighbors to rest, prepare a meal, connect to resources, and collectively create a healthy and vibrant community.
The lyric video for “Gold Rush” – the first single - features a visual shot by Death Cab for Cutie bassist Nick Harmer.
Says Gibbard of the inspiration for the track: “I’ve had this realization only recently that so many of my memories are tied to my geography. And when that geography changes, it’s as if you’re not only coming to terms with the passage of time, but it’s as if you’re losing those people and that time in your life all over again. Cities are in constant flux, and I’m not claiming victimhood in this, but the speed at which Seattle is changing, and people of color and creative communities are being pushed out, is alarming.”
