Pinback premieres "Sherman" video at Wired.com and announces new tour dates; new album "Information Retrieved" out TODAY!


NEW TOUR DATES SET FOR BOTH PINBACK AND THREE MILE PILOT

“Pinback’s leader, Rob Crow, has carved out a distinct identity as a storyteller with
a unique sound.”—NPR Music

“So sonically enthralling, you could call them heavenly.”—Entertainment Weekly

“The stuff of jagged, ornate artistes.”—NME

Pinback’s highly anticipated Information Retrieved is out today. To celebrate, Wired Magazine is premiering the video for the track “Sherman” at http://bit.ly/SZmN7X. The video, largely inspired by the low-budget sci-fi films of the Cold War era, was directed by Matt Hoyt without any CGI special effects.

The new album is currently on sale today for only $3.99 with an exclusive bonus track via Amazon at http://amzn.to/UQSlV2. Pinback will tour the east coast this fall before beginning a rare European tour along with bassist/vocalist Zach Smith’s critically acclaimed group Three Mile Pilot in December. They will conclude their tour with newly set west coast dates in January; please see below for a complete list of dates.

Information Retrieved is the first album in five years from the critically acclaimed duo of Smith and vocalist/guitarist Rob Crow. The record marks their full-length label debut for Temporary Residence Ltd. following a pair of highly sought-after limited edition Record Store Day singles last year. The group’s 2007 release Autumn of the Seraphs was hailed by Pitchfork as “uniformly gorgeous” while Mojo called the album “almost impossible to resist.”

 
Best known for “conveying a (much-needed) immediacy through Rob Crow’s voice” (Village Voice) along with Zach Smith’s unique bass guitar acrobatics, Pinback has cultivated an extremely large and loyal grassroots fan base since their formation in San Diego in 1998. Crow and Smith have continued to perform with a multitude of other projects in between Pinback releases, including the return of Smith’s long-standing critically acclaimed group Three Mile Pilot and Crow’s third solo album, He Thinks He’s People.
