O The Postal Service teve início em 2001, quando Ben Gibbard (vocalista do Death Cab For Cutie) e Jimmy Tamborello (do Dntel) decidiram formar um projeto paralelo juntos. Como Gibbard morava em Seattle e Tamborello em Los Angeles, a parceria era feita à distância. Tamborello compunha e gravava as batidas eletrônicas. Gibbard recebia os CD's pelo correio e escrevia as melodias, enviando as novas gravações de volta para Tamborello. Quando chegavam a um consenso, Ben escrevia as letras das músicas.

AmC Ther're guards at the on ramps AmC armed to the teeth AmC And you may case the grounds from the cascades to puget sound, GG But you are not permitted to leave
FGAmC I know there's a big world out there like the one i saw on the screen FGAmF In my living room late last night, It was almost too bright to see FGAmF And i know that it's not a party if it happens every night FG Pretending there's glamour and candelabra AmAm When you're drinking by candlelight
