Each Tuesday and Sunday, Taylor rounds up this week’s best new music with the New Music Discovery Show. Here’s one of our favourites.

Death Cab For Cutie – “Roman Candles”

Death Cab For Cutie have announced a new album. Entitled Asphalt Meadows, it arrives on September 16. In addition to the announcement, the band shared a new song called “Roman Candles”. Frontman Ben Gibbard describes that the lyrics “were cobbled from a couple of different songs dealing with my general sense of anxiety; the feeling that the fabric that weaves a functioning society together was crumbling during the pandemic.”
