Album artwork for Finisterre by Saint Etienne

'Finisterre' was originally released in 2002. It combines the influence of Saint Etienne's forays into more acoustic music (Good Humor) and trip hop (Sound of Water), but also returns to the patchwork sequencing of their classic albums. 'Finisterre' is not a mere collection of previous influences. Saint Etienne manage to pilfer from electro, hip hop, and even a teasing of vocoder on "New Thing." This brashness could sink most pop groups, but Saint Etienne's effortlessness still manages to shine through on 'Finisterre.'
