Owl City seems to be the up-and-coming synth-pop group that’s filling the shoes that the Postal Service left empty after Gibbard and Dntel left to pursue their own projects, if Amazon.com sales is to be any indication. The lyrics leave something to be desired compared to Gibbard’s, and the synth and vocals don’t mesh as well as Postal Service, but it is a refreshing listen.
