Their best

This is definitely my favorite Pinback. Mellow and easy and creative. Wish Emusic had their new album "Autumn . . ." Please guys.

Dense and dynamic

More good songs here than most bands get in three releases. BBTone is a particular favorite ("hands from the sky rip me open"), but you won't be disappointed if you download the whole thing.

They Say All Music Guide

On the band’s second album, Blue Screen Life, Pinback redefines its classic emo sound into something lush and personal. Quirky pop harmonies swirl into indie rock bliss and sweeping acoustics explore the bandmembers’ grand air as they make a sound for themselves. Songs such as “Boo” and “XIY” showcase Pinback’s growing musicianship and an intelligence similar to the likes of Built to Spill and Elliott Smith. “Prog” and “West” are both sweetly tainted with delicate percussion arrangements and hushing vocals — however, it’s not incredibly outstanding. Blue Screen Life is a progression for Pinback, and internal complexities inside the band’s songs are quite obvious. It’s not unique or brilliant; it’s a healthy dose of Pinback’s satisfaction in keeping things simple — lyrically and musically. – MacKenzie Wilson
