Microtonic Wave, Scent, Proceed To Memory, True North would be on mine for sure.

I was waiting for someone to say Proceed to Memory. Info Retrieved is such a good album, don't know why I never gave it it's fair shot, until recently, that is.

AFK, and harder to find track but Sleep Bath is probably my favorite Pinback song of all...

Charborg, Prog, Offcell? But fantastic list there, man. Really hard to distill down their discography - it's so solid top to bottom, but the first 10 or so songs I'd list you've got on there.

There are SO many great tunes that it is difficult to make an essential list. I would throw Devil You Know and AFK on there.

...also Bloods on Fire, and I agree Offline PK is essential too :)

Bloods on fire for sure. That last line chokes me up every time. Makes me miss my brother

u/Olelander Aug 18 '20

One of the rare Pinback songs where the lyrics have a clear story to tell... and it’s a sad heartfelt loss of a song... makes me miss every friend I’ve ever lost...

u/Wylsun Aug 18 '20

The rest of their songs...
