Fink - ‘Looking Too Closely'

“This is a song about somebody else”.

One of my favourite recent finds, Fink’s ‘Looking Too Closely’ builds a castle on a muted guitar strum. Fin Greenall’s earthy vocals draw you into what might have been a break-up song, but turns out to be a tense comment on self-perception. As the music unfolds around him, Greenall offers a heartfelt warning to the man in the mirror that if he looked back he might not like what he saw.

Album Hard Believer is out 14 July.
