The partnership of Armistead Burwell Smith IV and Rob Crow is at the heart of some of themost complex, postmodern indie pop happening on the West Coast. In the first few days of1998, Smith (of San Diego-based Three Mile Pilot) and Crow (of Thingy and Heavy Vegetable)formed a part-time recording project under the name Pinback.Pinback made their Touch & Go debut in fall 2004 with Summer in Abaddon, which saw theband members continue slowly to push themselves a bit further with complex song structureswhile maintaining their indie pop sensibilities. Two years later, the band issued NauticalAntiques, a collection of rarities and B-sides spanning from 1998 to 2001. Their second albumfor Touch & Go, Autumn of the Seraphs, followed in 2007. Though it wouldbe five years beforePinback followed up, their 2012 album, Information Retrieved, found them easily settling intotheir melodic groove.
