I don't think Pinback themselves have a WWI or WWII "fetish", as someone so misspelled. But I think their fans have a weird obsession with the World Wars.
As far as I can tell, two of their song names are associated with actual battles in World War II (Tripoli and Manchuria) and one is associated with WWI (Versailles). However, these three names are part of the underlying theme of songs named after locations (Avignon, Seville, Syracuse, etc).
