Smu

Please say some1 other then me has heard of a band called Finch! Just bought their newest alb What It Is To Burn a few weeks ago and now i'm hooked. But whenever i mention them 2 my friends they havent got a clue what i'm on about. Let me know if they've had any previous albs.

Ive got finches album. its arguably one of the best of 2003. new beginnings is a classic. i dont much about their earlier works to be honest.

New Beginnings is good, but i prefer What It Is To Burn and Ender. But hey! its good 2 know i'm not alone

Saw them play temple bar after hearing only one song (New Beginnings) and it was probably the best gig I've seen there. Absolutely amazing. Real raw energy and a really tight live outfit. They were all really friendly afterwards and sat talkin for ages...apart from nate who only came back coz he forgot his wallet NO0oB.

Anyway. Yeah They really are a great band. Their drummer left last month.

yeah i like finch got there last album. Met them at temple bar too, it was a really good show i have to say

projectmayhem

they're working on a new album (which judging by what i've heard is going to be 10x times better then the first album and the EP put together)...

pity about the drummer leaving though

begbie

Yeah, their good. But i think their sound is a little too polished due to the fact that their on drive-thru records. But hopefully their new album well be really good. I heard "worms of the earth" from the Underworld soundtrack and i really like that.

If you like Finch, you should check out A Static Lullaby. I love their album.

finally.

i bought "what it is to burn" about two summers ago (i think) and i loved it. Heard about them through the Lost Prophets website. It really really class IMO.They are only getting recognition now though.Saw a few vid's of theirs on digital

Smu

Thanks 4 your replies. I've got 2 more questions: when did they play here and does any1 know if they're coming back?

dregin

They played templebar music centre on 31st of March 2003.

Placebo

i didnt go to that cause i only had heard "letter to you" and i thought that song was **** and i still do, but then few days after at glassjaw, i seen lot of muppets wearing finch t shirts so i checked out a few other songs, "worms of the earth" is pretty cool, so are a few others, nothing great but good, i think daryl plumbo is featured in one of the songs on the new album.

begbie

Cool, daryl again featured. The two songs he was on on 1st album were probably two of the best.:D

There currently working on the follow up to the What it is to Burn. But they also have a new drummer. I'm sure once the album is released and they start touring they'll pay a visit here. I'm pissed off I missed them!!! I love that album...

begbie

The old drummer pappa's was cool. Some people moaned that he used the double bass a bit too much, but i liked that!:dunno:
