Fink - Resurgam (2017)

Resurgam - meaning "I shall rise again" - is the hotly-anticipated sixth studio album from Fink: UK-born, Berlin-based founding singer-songwriter musician Fin Greenall, alongside long-time bandmates Tim Thornton (drums, guitar) and Guy Whittaker (bass). It continues an acclaimed and distinctly adventurous catalogue, from the sample-splicing debut Fresh Produce (2000), through to the beautifully heady expressions of their last album, Hard Believer (2014). Greenall has also earned global props as a film music composer, songwriting collaborator (including works with John Legend and Amy Winehouse) and solo innovator, with recent side-projects spanning the electronic Horizontalism (2015) to Fink's Sunday Night Blues Club Vol.1 (2017). Fink have never been afraid to experiment; on Resurgam, they arguably sound more fearless than ever. "We tried to make a record we would listen to and go - fuck - I wish we'd written that....and every time I listen to it that's exactly what I think," says Greenall. "And I kinda have to pinch myself to remind myself that we did." Resurgam is a bold new chapter; it is also unforgettably Fink: whole-hearted, soulful, irrepressible.
