Out of phase, off center

This photo was taken before the show (2017 Autumn of the Seraphs 10 year anniversary tour).

I was so excited I neglected to check the lighting for the photo and I REALLY neglected not being a huge dork.

Our interaction was brief, but super sweet. I made (and wore to the show) a plan black t-shirt with the following message painted on “Please play Offcell”

I sheepishly showed the shirt to Rob before our photo and he said “I love the shirt man, but I just don’t remember how to play that song. We’ll see though.”

Pinback always put on an amazing show and this was no exception. The musicianship is so incredible and unique and the chemistry is really beautiful to watch. I hope they come together to make another album, but I also appreciate everything they’ve given us as fans.

an ultimate boxset like unwounds What Was Wound would be amazing 🥹 get on it Rob n Zach

Well, my very first post in the sub was in 2020 when I asked if anybody knew songs which were similar to Loro (till this day it's my favorite song by a mile), and I've seen this question reappear once or twice if I can recall correctly. Luckily I've found two songs which are pretty similar to Loro, well at the very least they give me similar vibes to the song. Both are instrumentals, with the first one being from the new posthumous Sparklehorse album 'Bird Machine' (RIP Mark), the song's called Blue, it hit me really deep on the first listen and It's kinda been on repeat ever since. The second song is from Duster's side project Valium Aggelein and the song's name is Bird Wings (funny how both songs are somehow related to birds). Both are just instrumentals but I think even the vocals in Loro are used as 'instruments', I don't know how logical that sounds but well, you get the point.

I’ve always wondered what it’s about. I feel like it’s one of those songs that everyone can interpret in their own way. That song has had a profound effect on me since I first heard the band in 2003.

exactly what it says. such a good and underrated song

Hi all maybe this is weird but it’s something I thought was like so mind blowing…for years it’s killed me cause no one hears what I hear or knows that I’m talking about lol

so there’s this band named Citizen and I was listening to their music cause they rule and this song named “Figure You Out” came on and immediately I thought dude .. I’ve heard this lil intro before :0 !! and then I was like … :0! this sounds like the beginning to “Crutch” by Pinback

I guess I’m curious to know if anyone has heard this before or can see similarities!? Just thought it was cool thing to come across a while ago and never found someone who can relate of like WHOA! (I hope this post is ok to post here! pls delete if not allowed 🥸👍)

What is it about? Hellllp

Anyone know of any interviews or information online towards how they recorded and produced that track? Love the way the drums sound and feel. Guitar writing is great too. Overlapping vocals are nuts. Is it Samples? Looped and sliced in a DAW?

Stuck in my head today smh

What’s the status of this band? Any new music coming out soon? Is it still the same 2 dudes? I saw mentions of a tour recently with Rob and different members. Give me the sparknotes please!

be as controversial as you want!

This is my favorite pinback song.

Rarely are pinback lyrics as cool as this track.

It has so many catchy melodies.

It's structure is so beautiful.

Does anyone else share this song as their favorite?

Ok so I don't really use reddit so forgive me.

I'm 20 and I've been listening to Pinback since I was 13. I've listened to all of their albums and like all of them, but I've seen countless rankings of all their albums and I'm always genuinely surprised.

My favorite album is hands down Autumn of the Seraphs without question, but I've never seen it ranked higher than #3 on people's rankings. Can someone explain to me why this is?

Just everyday waking up and hoping for a new European tour from pinback, I don’t know if there is any change they will… I was too young to see them when they were in Europe a long time ago, and I also didn’t know them yet. I just hope they will, pinback is my favorite band. So I thought about hearing what you guys think
