The singer-songwriter's latest album, IIUII (R'COUP'D, 2021) is the reinvention of the classic best ofThe artist re-recorded pieces written in the ten years between 2006 and 2016, 'the time span from when I was sitting in my room to the release of my first hit, big festival stages with major productions and all that'.
In 2019, after three years of intense touring with the band, Greenall embarked on a solo acoustic tour that brought him back to the simplicity of his early days, and working on an album that reflected this simplicity seemed the best way to tell his story.
The release was preceded by the first excerpt Warm Shodow (IIUII)the reinterpretation of one of the best-loved love songs of Fink. "Warm Shadow has for years been the perfect opening track of every set - driving, rhythmic and enjoyable - allowing us all to start the show off in the right way. It's one of those songs that we can play even in our sleep and we never get tired of it, we love it more and more, and at festivals it gets to be over 10 minutes long!"
IIUII is both a retrospective and a reference to the present. Recording certain pieces again with the maturity that Fin and other band members have acquired over time in this case does not mean remastering them and repeating them, but looking back at the past by analysing it through lived experience. This work was also an opportunity to listen to the old albums again, appreciating them for what they are and giving each song the consideration it deserves, outside of the usual talk about which song works best on the audience.
