To stir people’s anticipation for Bazooka Rocks Festival 3, Pulp Live World prepared a special pre-show featuring Finch, a post-hardcore/screamo band which gained recognition in 2002 with the release of their debut album titled “What It Is to Burn”.
Finch is currently composed of Nate Barcalow on vocals, Randy Strohmeyer on lead guitar, Alex Linares on rhythm guitar, Daniel Wonacott on bass guitar and Alex Pappas on drums. Up to now, their first album remains to be their most successful release yet. Their sophomore effort titled “Say Hello to Sunshine”, released in 2005, provided a less raucous sound and stuck more to post-hardcore instead of screamo.
As a band, their course had been slightly turbulent. They went through a series of indefinite hiatuses in 2006 and late 2010. With each member pursuing a different project during their breaks, the band’s future was left hanging. They started touring again in 2013 and started creating new material. Late this year, they are set to release “Back to Oblivion”, their long-overdue third album.
