Giveaway: Pinback w/Bellini at Emos [Tonight]

Pinback, an indie rock alternative duo from San Diego, is known for presentation of nimble lyrics and inventive musicality with a high drum mix. Their records are full of pulsating beats that march into the brain by rote, but the mesmerizing brilliance can only be truly appreciated after multiple listens. The cryptic messages lying beneath the musical layering mean Pinback's capabilities are only truly realized after witnessing a live performance.

The group's primary members, Armistead Burwell Smith IV (Zach) and Rob Crow, have been working together for more than 10 years. Since their first album release in 1999, they have found a sound that truly resonates. Newest album, Autumn of the Seraphs, is aggressive and at the same time embracing. They have utter dexterity with any instrument and often swap roles between drums, guitar and vocals. Tonight, Zach and Rob will bring the best of indie and avant garde rock to the outside stage at Emos.

Bellini, a dissonant punk band, will open up fro Pinback. The quartet strides itself on being "brutally honest," resulting in a beautifully aggressive sound.
