Back in the day I bought The Places You Have Come to Fear the Most completely blind off of a glowing write up on Usenet that essentially called him a newer, more exciting version of Nirvana. I shouldn’t have done that.

Oooft. Damning with faint praise if ever I heard it

Jeeping fuck. Bad times.

My housemate was going through… difficulties with his not quite girlfriend, future, and ex wife (they always made it look complicated). His normal diet of metalcore and bjork became supplemented with screaming infidelities. Never been so glad when two people finally got together.

Yeah, Finch seemed utterly out of place in that line up! They were on first if I remember correctly and didn’t have a very appreciative crowd!

I love that first Finch album but the lead singer was a bell end so I am not too sad people didnt appreciate them

Screaming Infidelities for me is so swamped in nostalgia I can’t give a balanced argument. I loved it, and would probably listen again and enjoy even now. No interest in anything else hes done though and mostly dissapointed in any new stuff I happened to hear

FFS I sort of agree with you, which is infuriating :wink:

I quite liked the first album which was all acoustic, certainly heartfelt if nothing else. After that, doesn’t do a lot for me at all.
