Album Notes & Community Reviews

Serving as a commercial and creative zenith for the Finn brothers, 'Time and Tide' elegantly merges the band's early eccentricities with incredibly sharp, melancholic pop songwriting. Characterized by recurring maritime themes and lush production, the album topped charts in both New Zealand and Australia, cementing their legacy as premier new wave architects.
