While crawling across the webscape doing some research for some upcoming reviews, I happened to stumble upon this 2008 essay written by Death Cab's frontman Ben Gibbard. It comes in three parts and touches on some really relevant topics about music, relationships, criticism, idols, perpetual unhappiness, writing songs and people that aren't necessarily interesting-- just because they are in to interesting things. Check it out at the jump below and let me know what you think. I especially want to hear reactions to one of his final points, "I would rather make great records than make great relationships". Check out the essay at the jump.
