Death Cab For Cutie playing Cosmo
People call them an “emo” band, but the emotion is more upbeat on Death Cab For Cutie’s new album “Codes and Keys.” And that seems a better fit for a Cosmopolitan pool party anyway.
If the band from the cool climes of Bellingham, Wash., can take the heat, they should be keeping fans up to date on the new album that reaches beyond guitar rock to electronic textures and rhythms. If you spot Zooey Deschanel, it’s either because she thinks the Cosmo is cool or because she’s married to frontman Ben Gibbard.
Death Cab plays after Frightened Rabbit at 8 p.m. Saturday at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, 3708 Las Vegas Blvd. South. Tickets are $39.50; call 877-893-2003.
