One of the most underrated bands out there.

Zach has such a unique way of playing bass. His sound carries so much weight in the mix and fills up the band a lot. Such an inspiration

First time I saw Pinback, it was at Emos in Austin. I believe it was 2001 prior to the release of Blue Screen Life. We made the 200 mile from Dallas to Austin to see them. The internet was in its infancy at the time, so we had no idea what the band looked like. We arrived to the venue pretty early. The only people in the bar were the three of us, the bartender and this chubby guy who was going to town on the pinball machine. He was bumping the shit out of that machine, probably Tilted every ball. He was super into it, yelling, dancing etc. We start laughing about him and then my friend was like "oh shit, I think thats Rob Crow". We had a good chat with him and we noticed that he was wearing the same shoes as us (we were buying these velcro shoes that sold at walmart for like 8 bucks". There were probably only about 25-30 people that came to the show, so it was very intimate. It was one of my favorite shows I've ever been to.

"Life stuff is weird; it happens the whole time you're around" - Rob Crow. I love this man unconditionally

[regntonne]

rarely have i listened to a band and loved every single song, pinback is such a band.

[shaunguest-binns]

My all-time favourite band, and have been for years and years. I may not listen to them for a long while, but when I do, it sparks a month of nothing but pinback and I absolutely love it.

These guys are one of a kind.That bass sound, the simple/solid drummer and vocals, harmonies/melodies. Nothing else like it.

[PhilOrth]

KEXP has such a phenomenal recording engineer, every performance in their studio is absolutely superb quality.

[logandogan]

That rob crow first "okay" is fricken wonderful. Amazing music

[gregorychittenden]

Pinback has played such a big role in my life, that I can't imagine myself without them... so much nostalgia.... so many ups & downs... they remain beautifully consistent... forever amazing! Thank you Zach & Rob!

[dps]

I never get tired of listening to Pinback....

[coltondzuba]

I still haven't heard a band better than pinback

[lazydud]

They are genius at making unique songs and melodies blend together. Highly recommend listening to their albums.

[nascentcomplacence]

Truly one of my absolute favorite bands if not favorite.

[skatepunkvideos]

So rad -- Rob and Zack both have had their guitars for 20 years or more... the bass has a 3MilePilot sticker on the headstock. I love it!

[rosem]

I grew up with you guys. You gave me memories I don't think I ever lived through. Thank you so much.

[JayGadling]

I didn't know William H. Macy was such a solid drummer. 

[johnclark]

Love these guys!  So great live and the fans are really dedicated.  Come to St. Louis soon and often!  Thanks for the great music Pinback!

[rspkt]

It's because they're a fantastic example of true musicians not just guys who happen to play an instrument in a band. Individually, they're extremely talented at often more than one instrument which absolutely expands not only their musical knowledge but ability to "think out of the box". Collectively, their respective styles mesh extremely well and compliment each other almost perfectly. Their ability to stay consistent yet grow has been nothing short of impressive, like you basically said.
