The fin. is one of the most exciting bands to emerge from Japan in the last few years. The band sounds like a cross between M83 and Phoenix, citing chillwave acts Toro y Moi and Washed Out as influences. These youngsters have been creating a growing fanbase, selling out their shows all over Asia and the band’s growing renown on western shores has led to a surge of media interest and prime headline slots on The Great Escape Festival and SXSW and making big waves in their homeland due to their stylish Europhile blend of synth-pop, chill wave and dream pop.
