We discuss the mode spectrum in both the deterministic and noisy Burgers equations in one dimension. Similar to recent investigations of vortex depinning in superconductors, the spectrum is given by a non-Hermitian eigenvalue problem which is related to a `quantum' problem by a complex gauge transformation. The soliton profile in the Burgers equation serves as a complex gauge field engendering a {\em mode transmutation} of diffusive modes into propagating modes and giving rise to a {\em dynamical pinning} of localized modes about the solitons.
