Death Cab's Walla: Feds took my music

Death Cab's Chris Walla: U.S. Border Agents Took Hard Drive With Master Tracks for Solo Album

The guitarist for indie pop rockers Death Cab for Cutie still expects to release his solo album in January even though federal border agents seized a computer hard drive containing the master tracks.

A courier was headed to Seattle-based Barsuk Records from a studio in Vancouver, British Columbia, when U.S. Border Patrol agents seized the hard drive Sept. 19, Chris Walla said Wednesday.

"I don't know what red flag could possibly have gone up at the border," Walla said in a phone interview from Portland, Ore. "It's so baffling to me."

Walla said he had been in British Columbia working on the album called "Field Manual." Barsuk needed the music to meet its production schedule, and a Hipposonic Studios employee volunteered to drive the mixed songs, on tape, and the original master tracks, on a computer hard drive."

canadians delivering emo-music to make american youth sad/apathetic when this stuff is put on commercials, movie trailers, and ringtones....It's psychological warfare. Clever canadians.
