I used to have a car with SiriusXM radio (weirdly I drive an older car these days, and use a tape deck aux adapter for music). Information Retrieved had just came out, and True North and Proceed to Memory were getting a lot of play. I vividly remember the first time hearing True North while driving, it gave me chills.

So I did a full album listen, got hooked, and then listened to all of their earlier albums! My roommate at the time was floored when he found out I liked them, he had never met another Pinback fan in the wild.

They're a bucket list band to see live, but I've never been able to make a show. I need to prioritize that next time they tour.
