Earlier this afternoon, Ben Gibbard, lead-vocalist of the veteran indie foursome Death Cab for Cutie, announced via Twitter that the band is currently writing new material.
The tweet itself, which has since been retweeted over 160 times and favorited by 253 individuals, was a direct response to one of the group’s followers, who publicly yearned for new music:
THIS IS HAPPENING! Do not fear. RT @brianfulda: I wish @dcfc would just return to what they do best – writing songs together.

Though no further details have been released as of yet, whatever the outfit has up their sleeves will be the first new material fans have been graced with since the band’s 2011 release, Codes and Keys.
