\[D\]eathcab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard has released the first single off his upcoming debut solo album *Former Lives*, which releases on 10/16\. The single in question is “Teardrop Windows,” which feels like a ray of sunshine over the sometimes morose DCFC material, or at the very least DCFC in a good mood. It’s a powerpop track which is reportedly inspired by Seattle’s Smith Tower.
