Album Notes & Community Reviews

The deeply idiosyncratic British singer-songwriter returns with an acerbic, highly literate rock album. 'Pointing the Finger' eschews commercial polish in favor of raw, blues-inflected art rock arrangements, serving as an ideal backdrop for Coyne's intense, emotionally unvarnished vocal delivery[cite: 1].
