"The marauders of soul and
purveyors of melodic music are back! Finka are here
with their new EP ‘Find Your Own Adventure’.
The last outings from Finka were sheer marvels with
great efforts on tracks like ‘The Runner’
and ‘Bigger Boat’. This time around the
lads are back with a fresher sound, a very complete
and crisp set of songs.
‘Battles’ kicks into
action with a fine aeroplane bass line. Melodic yet
dreamy guitars overflow filling your head with hair
tingling sounds. Jimmy’s back with addictive
vocals as if he’s been your best mate for years,
familiar and impressive.
'Find Your Own Adventure' points
to a new wave of optimism. With sounds that echo sentiments
of relief. Vocals and lyrics harking back to the past
but secretly opening the boundaries to new adventures.
A familiar guitar sound pierces through your skin
and vocals that challenge as the song builds to a
fantastic sing along chorus.
Jimmy leads the way with a soulful
entrance to the epic ‘Sixities’ a reflective
celebration of the good times. The song turns into
gang warfare with backing vocals from Adam, Jeppo
and Ben.
‘Bodies’ complete the
superb EP. Raucous guitars belt into the song with
piercing drum beats to tease. A groovy bass line backs
powerful vocals.
Finka again have surpassed any dreams
they thought they had. True magicians crafting their
meaningful melodies that describe the calm beautifulness
of grey Manchester. ‘Find Your Own Adventure’
provides a greater backbone and its time Finka let
the world in on them. Please go out to see this band.
You will also be amazed with Finka classics like ‘Bigger
Boat’ where bounding drum beats give waterfall
calmness and the vocals come to sooth you, another
tearful moment.
Finka are tight nit and bring souls
of the north into the fore. Highly outstanding!" Chris Watson, Glasswerk
