The work of Zach Smith and Rob Crow needs little introduction. Autumn of the Seraphs, their first record as Pinback since 2004s Summer in Abaddon, is the third Rob Crow full-length to be released in 2007, following his solo record and release with Other Men, and Zach Smiths Three Mile Pilot also has a record in the works for later this year. Amazingly, Autumn of the Seraphs stands up with their best work. Tracks like "Barnes and "Blue Harvest make the most of their off-kilter melodies, while "Walters and "Off By 50 work with a slower build. Ultimately, Autumn of the Seraphs further proves the enduring creativity of these two songwriters.
