In case none of you have heard of Postal Service they're the lovely people that practically guarantee that anything you mail will never make it to it's destination in time and equally guarantee that any package you receive will be kicked about proportional to the amount of fragile stickers you slap on. Oh, and they're also an electronic-indie band from Washington (that's in America for those of you haven't touched an atlas in a while). To me they're somewhat of a mix between Athlete, for the way the songs are quite chilled out, and The Killers ... because their American instead. The album itself is okay, but there are 2 songs that I think are just brilliant. These are The District Sleeps Alone Tonight and Such Great Heights. I can't take all the credit for finding this one because it was Chantelle who actually recommended The District Sleeps Alone Tonight. But that doesn't matter, because I'm still a genius. Long story short, if you'd like to check out some chilled out indie rock music, then give this a go. If you don't want to, get your hands on the first 2 tracks, you won't regret it. Enjoy.

The second track, Such Great Heights, is on the Garden State soundtrack as well, but it is a different version by Iron & Wine. It is totally different, slower and quite a bit sloppier. The soundtrack is a good listen by way.

Yeah, the soundtrack is really good actually. Cheers for mentioning that prem. Also, I forgot to mention another decent track off Give Up; track 5, Recycled Air is well good too.
