Do you Walla?

(Sorry about the title of this post... couldn't help myself.)

Just streamed Chris Walla's first solo album Field Manual. Though he's usually behind the scenes writing the melodies and lyrics for Death Cab For Cutie, it's fun to hear him on his own. I gotta say- his voice reminds me tremendously of Ben Lee's. (See 'Our Plans, Collapsing') But, then his voice shifts into the easily recognizable DCFC back-up voice that I'm accustomed to. (See the track 'Two-Fifty')

Overall, I didn't love the entire album... But, think I'll purchase these tracks:

'Everybody On,' Two-Fifty,' and 'Our Plans, Collapsing.'
