Ett utmärkt exempel på hur musik ska låta.

hmv.co.uk September 2002



Driven by undeniable passion, Finch - Nate Barcalow

(vocals), Alex Linares (guitar), Alex Pappas (drums),

Derek Doherty (bass), Randy Strohmeyer (guitar) - are the

band to bridge the gap between hard rock and pop-punk.

They dive headlong into songs laden with raw intensity to

create a perfect union of post-hardcore angst and melodic

rock dynamics. With a tip of the hat to their musical

peers and influences, Finch confidently push at the

boundaries set before them. The result of their

collective labours is 'What It Is To Burn', a soaring

baker's-dozen collection of tracks that simply shimmer

with sincerity. Ranging between emo-oriented melodies,

punk rhythm, pop hooks and aggressive hardcore

breakdowns, it covers the entire emotional spectrum. Not

unlike Glassjaw, Deftones and Jimmy Eat World, Finch

embrace disparate influences within their music - the

differences create a stronger whole.

'....too day-swallowing to be confined to the

underground. 'What It Is To Burn' could go down as one of

02's classics - Metal Hammer
