We Say Hello To Sunshine in the latest episode of Didn't Go Platinum. Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by Dave Stewart of the Noise Cartel to discuss the excellent but frequently misunderstood second album by Finch.
This remarkable slice of mid-2000's post-hardcore has become something of a cult favourite, but a sizeable chunk of Finch's early fanbase positively hated it. And that's not surprising; from the artwork that initially seems nice but gets weirder the longer you look at it, to the odd time signatures and disturbing lyrics, it's a very challenging album.
But it's also very good. Here, Dave makes the case for why it deserves a reappraisal. Don't go in expecting another 'Letters To You,' this is an entirely different Finch.
You can find out more about Dave's work with The Noise Cartel at their website.
