Pinback's Rob Crow returns to music, announces new album and tour as Rob Crow's Gloomy Place (stream a track)

by Andrew Sacher

Earlier this year, Rob Crow of Pinback and other bands announced that he’d be quitting music (and social media), but it turns out that he couldn’t stay away. Now he’s got a new band called Rob Crow’s Gloomy Place set to release an album called You’re Doomed. Be Nice. on March 4 via Temporary Residence Ltd and tour in 2016. The album features the lead single “Business Interruptus,” which fans of Rob’s previous work should find instantly satisfying. Check it out below.

The tour begins on leap day (February 29) and hits NYC on March 10 at Knitting Factory. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (11/20) at 10 AM.
