Seraphs is the fourth installment in a canon of solid, ever-upward releases from Pinback, leaving behind some of the
dramatic, underdeveloped elements of the bass-heavy self-titled debut (1998) and the dated math-pop of Blue Screen Life
(2001), oriented here toward more pleasing guitar rhythms and cadence-friendly harmonies.

The idea I get is that math-pop is like math-rock, but with more emphasis on melody and hooks.

In the music press, you also hear about jazz-rock vs. jazz-pop, noise-rock vs. noise-pop, synth-rock vs. synth-pop, etc. This particular terminology substitution is very common in the splintered world of indie music.
