Album Notes
Death Cab for Cutie producer and musical mastermind steps out from his primary gig's shadow for FIELD MANUAL, a solo debut that sounds much like his main squeeze of a band. Not that there's anything wrong with that. What works on Death Cab albums works here too: layered, mid-tempo indie pop with enough guitar crunch, hooks, and political wit to bob heads and raise fists in equal measure. Two pleasant surprises: hearing Walla's sweet, accomplished vocals independent of Ben Gibbard's and the spare, melancholic closing tracks.The limited edition deluxe version features a gorgeous cloth-bound cover.

Editorial Reviews
Ever the skilled multi-instrumentalist, Walla also reveals an endearingly shaky singing voice, which he lends to a set of dreamy, low-key protest songs. -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly

3.5 stars out of 5 -- It's a flawless glass in which to capture Walla's dreamy melodies, which are bedecked with careful, unobtrusive glints of studio embellishment.
Paste

The lush vocal harmonies on opener 'Two Fifty' are unique and arresting...
Harp

CMJ He plays every instrument save drums....[Walla] musters the blithe confidence of a musician whose intuitive capabilities as a front man have been glossed over for much too long.
