Death Cab For Cutie have joined the ranks of people who think 30 Seconds To Mars frontman and actor Jared Leto is a douchebag.

Death Cab bassist Nick Harmer recently told The Big Takeover he thinks Leto isn't sincere about his music and is just "acting" like a rock star.

"He's a professional actor in music; so there's no way to feel any sincerity about his position as a musician... Because he makes a living playing characters — so why wouldn't he be able to take a step forward?" singer/guitarist Ben Gibbard chimed in during the interview. "Then you're also acting what you think a rock star should act like."

Harmer also said Leto only wears makeup because "Oh that's what rock stars do: they wear eyeliner."

Leto hasn't responded to the comments yet, but we all know (thanks to Elijah Wood's misfortune) how much he dislikes "criticism."

Hey, where's that free new 30 Seconds To Mars album? Anyone? Anyone?
