Pinback should be huge by now
My Amazon orders arrived today and finally got Snow Patrol’s Final Straw and Blue Screen Life, the second album from Pinback.
Now, one of the biggest mysteries for me is why Pinback is not even getting big. Even my friends who listen to basically the same stuff as I do never mention Pinback. They never got excited when I told them that Autumn of The Seraphs, their newest album, will be released September of this year. They do not even share my general enthusiasm for Pinback’s music.
I love Death Cab for Cutie and I think Ben Gibbard is a genius but Pinback has as much right to get as big as Death Cab, if not more. Zach Smith and Rob Crow are music geniuses. I personally think they are two of the most innovative artists ever to collaborate. I do hope that at some point in the future they finally get the recognition they so justly deserve.
