"Give Up" is wonderfully haunting!
The only way to describe this album is "indescribable". Of the entire collection, one song will forever stick in my mind. "Such Great Heights" was introduced to me by my ex, along with several other songs from the album. Though they were difficult to hear over the rumble of the car's ragged...

Give Up, one for the "classics" of all time
Give Up features 10 tracks of what will, in the future, be considered a classic. Ben Gibbard and Tamborello have tapped into the electro pop genre, but keep a very chill feel to the overall record. Standout tracks for me were "The District Sleeps Alone Tonight" and "Such Great Heights." Never a...

The Postal Service - Give Up
Exploring and listening to different music genres is something I enjoy doing. This album was my introduction to the electronic pop genre. The Postal Service's (Ben Gibbard, Jimmy Tamborello A.K.A. Dntel) debut album "Give Up" (2003), an impressive ten track release full of chill feel good music...

The Greatest of Heights
You know that pivotal scene in "Garden State" where Natalie Portman's character shows Zach Braff's character a song by The Shins? She says, "You gotta hear this one song, it'll change your life I swear," and it literally does set into motion a chain of events that changes his life completely....

Great
This is very innovative music. It is electronic trancey music that is quite different from most stuff you will have heard, partly because it is not composed or played like "ordinary" electronic music. It is quite impressive in its soundscapes with a texture is is almost organic.

Auditory Valium
First word: Incredible. Although, I've listened to various of tracks from this album, I've never owned. This side project from DCFC's Ben Gibbard and his cohort Jimmy Tamborello is just what the doctor ordered. Last word: Nice.

Infectious, amazing
I came to this album with fresh ears, meaning I had never heard Death Cab For Cutie, or Dntel. In fact, I'd never heard anything by either of them. I happened to stumble upon this one day on Pandora.After reading all the rave reviews and hearing a few samples I bought the album.The first time I...

An Ultimate Album
So, I've had "Give Up" for about 4 years now and have never stopped listening to it. Jimmy Tamborello and Ben Gibbard are the Batman and Superman of music. Delivering imagery lyrics with pop-addictive instrumentals, these songs evoke the ups and downs of an eternal romance we all hope to...
