I made the comment in a recent post that Ben Gibbard -he of Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service- was no genius. Actually, I went so far as to say that, in my opinion, he is closer to being the Carrot Top of rock music than a genius.
After a spirited debate with my friend Tricia Lahde I am prepared to concede that, based largely on a few songs he did with The Postal Service, Ben Gibbard is not akin Carrot Top.
He is the leader of a disgustingly over-rated indie band, and a contributor to another better-but-not-really-that-great electronic-indie outfit. But he is no Carrot Top.
Sorry Ben Gibbard.

Sorry Carrot Top?
NEW EVIDENCE JUST IN!!!
NEW EVIDENCE JUST IN!!!
We at SNEAKY SUBMARINE have obtained further evidence that Ben Gibbard is NOT Carrot Top!!! If he was Carrot Top he'd look like this:
He's kind of a cross between -look for it- Angie Dickenson, Courtney Cox, Sylvester Stallone and Michael Jackson. I've never liked prop comics, and this is why.
