'If you've ever had to try and convince yourself and everyone around you that you're ok when you are most definitely not, this song is for you,' the band said of the song.

The video was directed and created by musician and animator Sean Solomon. 'I normally animate music videos for my own songs, but I found this song incredibly personal, even though it wasn't mine. I think everyone can relate to the little man in the video having a bad day. But I wanted the video to ultimately have a positive message even though it's sad. Everyone is going through something, and sometimes helping others can be a way to get out of our own heads and remember we're not alone,' Solomon said.

Inspired by cartoonists who use visual gags, like Sergio Aragonés's drawings in MAD Magazine, Solomon leaned into a slapstick, cartoon style as a playful juxtaposition to how heartbreaking the song actually is.

The 2027 North American Tour will be Death Cab for Cutie's next headline run following a fall stretch that has carried them through the UK, Europe, Japan and Australia. 2027 will see stops in Nashville, Atlanta, Boston, New York and more. Artist presale begins Wednesday, Sept 23rd at 10am local time, followed by local presale on Thursday, Sept 24th at 10am local time. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, Sept 25th at 10am local time. Fans can find full details and sign up for updates at deathcabforcutie.com .

Death Cab for Cutie's I Built You A Tower marks the band's return to their independent roots after 20 years on Atlantic Records. Produced and engineered by John Congleton and recorded at Animal Rites in Los Angeles as well as the band members' homes in Seattle, Bellingham, Los Angeles and Portland, the album features 'Riptides,' the band's 9th #1 at Adult Alternative radio.

In recent years, Death Cab for Cutie celebrated several historic milestones, including massive sold-out tours celebrating the 20th anniversaries of seminal releases Transatlanticism and Plans. Those tours were pivotal to the creation of I Built You A Tower, as the band drew on that renewed connection with their catalog and each other to record a leaner, more immediate set of songs.
