In what may be the first news story to mention both the Twilight series, and David Foster Wallace’s short story collection Brief Interviews with Hideous Men, Pitchfork reports that Death Cab for Cutie will be joining the New Moon Talent Tour:
Death Cab for Cutie is only appearing on one date of the Talent Tour, a promotional event that’ll bring bands from the New Moon soundtrack and cast members from the movie to malls across the country. Still, if you’re anywhere near Hollywood on November 6, it might be worth it to stop by the Hollywood & Highland Hot Topic, just for the opportunity to see Death Cab for Cutie performing in the vicinity of black-light posters and Twiztid hoodies. (Sea Wolf, Band of Skulls, and Anya Marina will also perform that day.)
No word on if Thom Yorke and/or Robert Patterson will be on later dates.
