After hitting the big time with 2005’s breakthrough Plans, Death Cab For Cutie looks to be headed down an unexpected direction for the follow up.

In a recent Billboard piece, the band is promising a “curve ball” and though it will have a number of slower songs, the band is promising some surprises:

It’s really weird. It’s really, really good, I think, but it’s totally a curve ball, and I think it’s gonna be a really polarizing record. But I’m really excited about it. It’s really got some teeth. The landscape of the thing is way, way more lunar than the urban meadow sort of thing that has been happening for the last couple of records.

[It’s also] louder and more dissonant and … I think abrasive would be a good word to use. [We were influenced by] heavy, sludgy, slow metal [and] synth-punk band Braniac.

The record is expected in 2008.

Brian Bell of Weezer recently posted an update on the band’s upcoming sixth album. The record has been the source of much speculation but little concrete information has actually surfaced in the past few months. Bell explained:

Greetings fellow Weezer-ites. We’d like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and the Happiest of New Years. And it’s going to be a very happy one because album six is finished and personally I think it’s our best yet. Never have the four of us worked so hard and passionately on an album and we all look forward to performing this culmination of our talents and combined knowledge in 2008 in a city near you!

Prior to confirmations that the band was recording the album, many had assumed that the band was set to disband. Their last album, Make Believe was released in 2005.
