Death Cab For Cutie Plan 7th Album

Chris Walla of Death Cab For Cutie has stated the band are in the early stages of planning their 7th album.

In an interview with MTV, Walla said:

"I think probably [we'll be] continuing with the ‘everybody live in a room’ theme. [...] Narrow Stairs, I thought, was a really logical extreme, like we took the ‘live’ thing as far as we could probably take it. Every record is a learning experience, so maybe pulling back a bit from that and trying something else.

It’s all demos at this point, and they are mostly kind of scratchy, unfinished demos. Ben [Gibbard]’s been writing and sort of getting back into it. The thing is, the whole idea with this time, was that we were going to finish touring in July and the end of the year was going to be sort of writing and decompressing. But the New Moon thing happened, and it’s like, we’ve all been busy. It’s just been busy, it’s been crazy. So I think the whole timeline is sort of getting pushed into the future a little bit."
