The history of Pinback goes deeper than you'd suspect. Thingy, Heavy Vegetable, Rob Crow's solo discs, and metal side-project Goblincock are all branches of a family tree to which Pinback has proven to be the solid trunk. Like many cult acts, there are a host of people who would love the band if given the chance, and the solid Autumn of the Seraphs is as good a starting point as any. Gently creative, intrinsically tuneful, and sounding wholly singular, there is a reason this band is so well-loved in secret circles: they're quintessential indie-rock.
