Fink from Ninjatune

Posted over 3 years ago
Not as subtle as Jose Gonzalez, but in the same vein and damn good if i may say so."What Fink has achieved is to have been reincarnated as Ninja Tune's first ever guitar-toting singer-songwriter. Immersed in a very personal labour of love, the brooding Bristol-bred, Brighton-based artist has written, produced and performed a striking, stripped-down symphony of an album. Like a twenty-first century John Martyn, Fink's insistent songs are flushed with bruised basslines and skinny blues licks. And they're exceptional."'From the very opening of the record, "Pretty Little Thing," Fink shows that his lyrical pre-occupations are very much his own. While he touches on themes which are in themselves familiar - love, sex, loss, bad jobs, the ephemera of everyday life - he treats them with such an attention to detail and to his own genuine feelings that they fly."Fink on NinjatunePretty Little Thing VideoAll played out mp3
