Death Cab For Cutie Ponders The Possibility Of A 'Twilight' Musical

The bearded men of Death Cab For Cutie were lucky enough to have the first single from the New Moon soundtrack with "Meet Me On The Equinox." And aside from making them extremely popular with the Twi-hard crowd, it's automatically immersed them in Twilight lore and philosophy.

In this video interview, taken during Death Cab's mtvU Woodie Award rehearsals (that's The Dead Weather rehearsing in the background), guitarist Chris Walla and bassist Nick Harmer sound off on a few Twilight issues.

Chris declares his preference for Bella's unassuming dad out of all the Twilight characters, while Nick drops some knowledge on Twilight's larger appeal, relating it to the current political climate and consumerism.

Nick Harmer then opens a HUGE can of worms by openly speculating on the chances of a Twilight musical. (As opposed to Twilight the Musical, the YouTube parody.) Wonder if Death Cab would be up for scoring that?
