Pinback

What began casually enough as a way to keep the hands from going idle between Three Mile Pilot and Thingy albums has grown to become one of the most unique and well-respected underground bands of the this century. Over the course of five albums in nearly 30 years, Pinback has mined, perfected, done and undone more in any one album than most can comprehend. Their hybrid of pop, folk, rock, punk, reggae and subdued funk is genuinely like nothing else out there. Perhaps even more remarkable: not an ounce of contrivance in sight.
