Pre-order for “I Built You A Tower” by Death Cab For Cutie.

After twenty-odd years in the major label system, the band returned to their indie roots and signed with ANTI- Records and they're back with a brand-new eleventh album titled, I Built You A Tower out June 5th. I Built You A Tower is the sound of loss, compartmentalization, and then grief bursting out from the seams. It's also the sound of the growth that comes after falling apart, of acknowledging pain without letting it destroy you. "I see the tower existing on your emotional horizon," Ben Gibbard states. "You don't always have to look at what's inside it, but it's a reminder that it happened. You know it's there. You have to face it."   The band will tour in support of the new album, including a play at Outside Lands. This comes on the heels of a historic, sold-out global tour marking the 20th anniversary of the album Transatlanticism, and the release of their universally acclaimed, 2022's Asphalt Meadow.

EXPECTED RELEASE DATE: 6/5/26.

PRE-ORDER DISCLAIMER: Release dates are tentative and often get pushed back or cancelled by the labels. We try 100% to get you what you order, but there are times when we aren’t allotted enough of the item to fill all of the orders (and usually we won’t know this until the week of the release). In this case we will contact you as soon as we are aware that the order can’t be fulfilled. Special limited/indie exclusive releases can be ordered in multiples, but we can’t guarantee that we will be able to fill more than one copy of each said release.

Pre-orders are essentially “special orders”. This means if you place a pre-order, we are ordering it specially for you (many items we have up for pre-order are not items we carry in our store, and those that we do, we are ordering EXTRA copies to fill your pre-orders). Because of this, we cannot do cancellations or refunds after the pre-ordering time period has ended.
