    "comment": "Two years ago, Ben Gibbard answered a long burning question in the minds of many: \"Anybody who’s been asking a second Postal Service record, like really ask yourself, after 20 years, do you really think that there’s gonna something we could make that could even satisfy half of the desire you have in your mind as to what this record would be like?\n\n\"Twenty years — a lot of technology has changed. A lot of how we make music has changed dramatically since then. It wouldn’t be the same. \"I think often, when we think about the music that we love the most and the eras of a certain artist or a band that we love the most, we’re as much thinking about the sound.\n\n\"It’s not just the songs or how you were driving around in high school listening to it, wishing you could be anywhere other than the town that you’re living in — it’s the sound of it. Whatever we would make now would sound dramatically different than what we made 20 years ago, and I think it would be a disappointment even if we tried.\" https://bit.ly/3XlsCUU",
