Keith Daniels: The Postal Service

Excellent interview. Just recently "discovered" the Postal Service by accident and I have to say, quite good.

wonderful!

that is such a good album, and i haven't seen an interview with either member, well, anywhere.

sg has the connections.

but what about the ubiquitous final "punk emo or goth" question?

that amuses (me).

Good job, as always, KD. I think I like "Give Up" more than the new Deathcab album. Of course i was a lame-o when PS played town, and missed it...damn school, damn edumacation...anyway, thanks for landing another interesting interview.

diggity

great interview. Pleasantly suprised to see it when I logged on...

i'm with LE on this one, these guys are great- and an inspiration for someone like me who also does home recording of varied styles all by my lonesome on my mac. good interview, keep 'em comin'...

only 8 comments wow... is there no love for postal service on sg? I listened to them obsessively all summer! now such great hights give me a head ache. Pretty cool he had MTV on and he's not afraid to say he listened.

Sorry, those are the only people who like the postal service on SG.

Strange thing is, i love the Postal Service, but do not care for the death cab at all

I really hate the fact that the article never mentions the third member, Jenny Lewis from Rilo Kiley. She was also with the guys from the beginning. And yep, its the same Jenny Lewis that was in a lof of early 90s films.

God, I saw these guys at Sasquatch Festival last year and my ribs were tying themselves in knots because I had such an automatic insatiable crush on Lewis from the audience. Her sheer presence on the stage knocked me a lil' senseless.

Was mighty shocked but quite ecstatic to see The Postal Service interviewed by SG...I have had to replace the 2nd copy of "Give Up" due to the abuse it has suffered from way tooooo much play

Wow, awesome. Glad to hear they are going at it for a second record, exciting news!

the postal service sucks ass

smooth.

Good interview, i still listen to that album.

yeah well, it happens.

I heard deathcab first - not much of a fan. But my boyfriend got me into Postal Service about a year ago, I think I love him even more for it....

And just about a week ago I heard a familiar beat coming from the Jeep next to me so I turned down my Brand New mix cd and rolled the window down a little bit farther and it was the Postal Service!!!!! Makes me so happy to know I'm not the only one who listens to that stuff at top volume

Although, I must admit that for me their appeal is mainly based on their frightening similar sound to The Weakerthans whom I have loved for many years, imitation is the highest form of flattery is it not?

fuck postal service i gave there album a try after i found out my gf liked them and the song such great heights was getting big, but from a producers pov there drums are crapp, and do you people even know how to master anything, for fucks sake please spare our ears by not making anything else from the postal service, cant even make mp3's what a fucking idiot, btw your songs are so pussiey

*girlish squeel*


i've known about this kick ass group years before it went all tv commercial soundtrack on the world. my friend burned me a copy of the yummy music that barely anyone had heard of, telling me that it's impossible to listen through the cd and not be smiling by the end (which is absolutely true )

don't worry about my copying, though. as soon as i was able, i busted it out there and bought my own copy and some postal paraphernalia (because you just gotta support what you love

keep rockin' hard.
