Armistead Burwell Smith IV - Pinback

Pinback

The name Pinback originated from a movie in the early 70's, called "Dark Star". The actually name derived from the movie was by one of the crew members on the space ship who was named "Pinback". Pinback is a band formed and headed by Armistead Burwell Smith IV and Rob Crow in 1998, it is his most commercially successful project to date. Smith and Crow played music together as early as their days as roommates, and had never released any music; his break from Three Mile Pilot served as a good opportunity for the two to collaborate. Pinback often features Zach's innovative bass playing, with a unique layering of instruments, drum machines, and rich vocals. The band's original recordings, that later became their first album, This is a Pinback CD, were recorded on Smith's personal computer. To date the band has recorded five studio albums, with the latest, Information Retrieved, released on October 16, 2012.
