'Last Night on Earth' is the third album from Noah and the Whale and is co-produced by Fink and Jason Lader [Julian Casablancas,The Mars Volta] in Los Angeles.
'Last Night on Earth' possesses a curiosity and a vibrancy, a romance and a restlessness, and a clutch of songs that mark out Fink as not just as one of the best songwriters of his generation, but also as a supremely gifted storyteller.
The album's strong narrative thread was in part inspired by Lou Reed's 1973 album Berlin as well as Tom Waits' 1992 record 'Bone Machine', and a little Arthur Russell thrown in for good measure. “Just people songs,” is how Fink describes it. "These are simple stories, so you could tell them in hundreds of different ways, and the way you tell them, that's sort of the music".
