Fink unveil new single, "One Last Gift"

Fink have returned with new single, "One Last Gift", which is taken from singer-songwriter Fin Greenall’s eighth studio album, Beauty In Your Wake.

“I sang into the hole of my nylon guitar through my effects to get this kinda Thom Yorke-alike vocal flow. Tim came with a grooving riff and a flowing rhythm and Guy pulled out his 90’s rave trousers for a kinda throbbing rave bass line. Somehow this all fits. Like with all of the recordings for this album, I really didn’t want to think too hard about it. This song didn’t get re-written or re-edited or overworked. I wrote this beautiful song, sent it to the boys, and then we recorded it in the chapel, as simple as it should be. Just write what is insidey ou and not what you think you need to," Greenall explains.

"The song really turned into a song about itself, about writing and about how the only person of importance in the process of creation is yourself. That and just wanting your loved one to know if you could do it again, maybe you’d do it differently. Figuring it out in the aftermath I feel is like a classic play for me, for men maybe in general."

Fink recently announced that the three frequent collaborators had come together to record as a band for the first time since the release of 2014’s Hard Believer, using the release of first single, "What Would You Call Yourself", to introduce a new, naturally-productive phase.

Beauty In Your Wake is released via the band’s R’COUP’D label on 5 July. For more information, visit finkmusic.net.
