Track: Fink – One Last Gift


Tom Young

With two singles already out there, ‘What Would You Call Yourself‘ and ‘So We Find Ourselves’, Fink have shared the third single, ‘One Last Gift’, to be taken from their eighth studio album ‘Beauty In Your Wake’.

Greenall says:

“I sang into the hole of my nylon guitar through my effects to get this kindaThom Yorke-alike vocal flow. Tim came with a grooving riff and a flowing rhythm, and Guy pulled out his 90’s rave trousers for a kinda throbbing rave bass line. Somehow this all fits. Like with all of the recordings for this album, I really didn’t want to think too hard about it. This song didn’t get re-written or re-edited, or overworked. I wrote this beautiful song, sent it to the boys, and then we recorded it in the chapel, as simple as it should be. Just write what is inside you and not what you think you need to.”

“The song really turned into a song about itself, about writing and about how the only person of importance in the process of creation is yourself. That and just wanting your loved one to know if you could do it again, maybe you’d do it differently. Figuring it out in the aftermath, I feel is like a classic play for me, for men maybe in general”

The hypnotic flow and powerful laid-back groove are soul-deep and infectious, as once again Greenall and the boys craft beautiful melodies. Led by picked guitars, the dramatic backing from drums and bass gives the track a deep vibe, thats echoed in the lyrics. Songs like this are why we need Fink.
