Death Cab For Cutie es un grupo de indie-rock original de Bellingham, Washington. Se formó en 1997 y toma su nombre de una canción escrita por Vivian Stanshall, que forma parte del disco Gorilla (1967) de The Bonzo Dog Band y de la película experimental de The Beatles: Magical Mistery Tour.
Death Cab For Cutie comenzó como un proyecto en solitario de Ben Gibbard mientras era el guitarrista de Pinwheel. Como "Death Cab for Cutie", Gibbard editó un primer cassette llamado You Can Play These Songs With Chords.
