Seeing Death Cab For Cutie Live Versus On An Episode Of "The O.C."
How seeing Death Cab for Cutie live for the first time brought back memories of one of my favorite television series.
Growing up a young black kid in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I often had to juggle different music tastes; I had to listen to NWA to fit in with black kids at school (a struggle, since my mother had me at a young age and listened to the same music and I wasn't trying to have the same tastes as my parent) and I listened to Weezer to fit in with white kids (another struggle, because my dark secret is that my favorite Weezer album is Make Believe).
Luckily, that all changed on August 5, 2003 when The O.C. debuted. The show instantly became a television sensation that everyone was talking about, regardless of race or even age, there were quite a few teachers at school who watched it too. It caught fire the way that Empire has now and Scandal and Lost did in the past.
One of the best things about The O.C. was how it used indie music instead of Top 40, so it introduced fans to bands like Imogen Heap, Modest Mouse, and most importantly — Death Cab for Cutie.

The first Death Cab song I ever heard was "A Movie Script Ending," in the seventh episode of The O.C.'s first season, "The Escape."
Summer (Rachel Bilson) described the song as "one guitar and a lot of complaining." Seth (Adam Brody) warned her, "Do not insult Death Cab!" The episode sparked a love affair with Death Cab's 2001 album The Photo Album. I was free to listen to the album without the judgement of my teenage peers, because it was music from The O.C., so of course everyone was already listening to it.
