We've had 10 years of Death Cab For Cutie's "Narrow Stairs," so naturally, it was time for a big, exhaustive track-by-track. The hosts talk the album's key 4-5-6 stretch of tracks, they argue the merits of the first single's long running time, while then attempting to settle the big question surrounding the record. Just how long was Benjamin Gibbard's hair during this period?

Producer Britton Rozzelle guests and brags about his "Rock Band" skills.

Error: The Against Me! album referenced and which has many, many pressings is "Reinventing Axl Rose."

Episode 204 of Modern Vinyl has the hosts giving their 2nd Chance Spin to Saves The Day's 2003 full length, "In Reverie." An album their label quickly gave up on, upon release frontman Chris Conley said the reception opened up a "chamber inside me," a "vault of seething despair." So yeah, not a super smooth process. Mo Shafeek joins us on the program (live in Austin!) for the 6th time. He's booked the most appearances on the show (breaking a tie with Bull Moose's Chris Brown).
