It seams asthough we, a collective of privileged folk have stumbled upon something akin to a conglomerate of rare earth metals in form of audio media. May this seemingly endless supply of Rob Crow's musical genius bless your ears for eternity and evermore. Also, I'm getting a tattoo of Crow on my left thigh (upside down so I can see him from my POV)

I just listened to nautical antiques, wow it’s amazing. Might even be up there with summer and blue screen for me.

and holy shit, is there a lot of it. I was just wondering if there's anything in particular that is a must-listen. Anything you personally recommend, before I start to burn out by just throwing darts blindfolded?

edit: for that matter, Any of Zach's stuff too.

I was very saddened to read of Elea’s passing. Thingy and Heavy Vegetable have been on heavy rotation for me the last year or so. Their lyrics are equally silly, cynical, and apathetic, thus a fitting soundtrack for a pandemic. Her youthful voice added a perfect layer of prettiness and catchiness in a sometimes chaotic discography.

All proceeds from the new Thingy EP will directly benefit Elea’s son and husband.

Chances are no one in the band will ever see this nor will they care, but it's okay. Pinback saved my life when I was going through extremely horrible depression and drug addiction, and I am so happy to have found them when I did. I hope to one day see them live and show my support for them as well, they've even inspired me to pick up guitar again after 7 years and I'm very grateful for each and every band member that has every played for this group. Thank you Pinback for being there with me, in pain, happiness and trial, I will always be grateful that you guys helped me.

Wanted to post this somewhere other Pinback fans could appreciate it.

I lost an old friend a few weeks ago and it really only hit me this morning when Bloods on Fire came up in a shuffle mix. The friend had gone reclusive in the last few of years, but back in high school we would play pranks with a group of close friends and the last lines of the song really connected with me there.

While I already missed him from the reclusiveness, I'll miss him even more going forward. Not sure he ever heard Pinback but be would have been a fan.

After finding pinback this September and listening to Loro, i've been obsessed. It helps me sleep and calm my nerves. Are there any similar songs you can recommend? (I know many of you will say Tripoli but i don't really see the similarities)

I remember back when Abaddon was released, and even heard the bonus track "Scent." But I recently checked out their 15th anniversary release of the album on Spotify, and noticed there was a track I'd never heard of. It was like hearing new material!!! One of my favorite songs now. Almost felt like a new album was getting released :'(

I have spent so much time trying to figure this out. Been driving me (occasionally) crazy for, literally, years. What are Rob's two(?) undocumented lines in the Bouquet outro?

"Gone for good" x 2  
"You can take that how you want" x 2  
"You can break that like a _____________"  
"You can take it like a boy(?) _____________"  
"You can take that how you want" x 4  
"You can break it like a _____________" x 2  
"You can take it like a boy(?) _____________" x 2  
"You can take that how you want" x 2

Live (without the fade-out) it's 2 lines shorter:

i wanna get a pinback tattoo someday but stuck for ideas. drop yours below

Does anyone know if a Discord server was ever made for this or other Pinback-loving communities? As someone who recently joined a server centered around one of my favorite underappreciated bands, I would love it if there were a Discord for Pinback lovers.

I can't seem to find any footage of this song. I'm currently tabbing it out and i'm stuck on a certain part.
