“60 & Punk” by Death Cab for Cutie

"60 & Punk" sits on Thank You for Today, the ninth Death Cab for Cutie album, which Atlantic put out on August 17, 2018. Rich Costey was back after working with the band on Kintsugi, and he both produced and mixed it, with Martin Cooke engineering and extra engineering help from Nicolas Fournier.

It's Ben Gibbard's song through and through: he wrote the words and the music, sings it, plays piano and guitar, and even did some of the recording himself. Nick Harmer holds down the bass and Jason McGerr handles drums and percussion, while the synthesizers come from Dave Depper and Zac Rae, who also works a sampler. Those two were new to a Death Cab album here, and it's the first record since the debut, You Can Play These Songs with Chords, without Chris Walla in the fold.
