    Only someone who hasn't listened to any other music beyond what they're fed to by the radio could possibly mistake those for "creative," and even then it's a bit of a stretch.

    I'm getting more and more annoyed by Owl City too, because it seems as though now I can't listen to Owls without someone confusing the two bands.

    It's good to be happy. There's no hope.

    yeah, lyrics aren't his thing... at all

    but however, have you heard his ambient project Port Blue? I respect him for that.. listening to Port Blue makes me think that this whole Owl City thing might be a parody or a day job

    Yes, and compared to a dead, decomposing skunk, my bowel movements don't smell too terrible either...

    I can't stand Death Cab. The only thing I know about Owl City is that they helped Relient K with a song on their last album. I'll probably eventually listen to them.

    Owl City is damn close to the top of the Garbage heap in my opinion.

    PLEASE NOBODY TAKE OFFENSE to this comment for this is MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION. I like Owl City and Creed more than Death Cab for Cutie and Pearl Jam but, I do like Death Cab for Cutie and Pearl Jam very much.
