Gunshine have a new single out and a full album on the way. The Pensacola, Florida rock outfit just released “Finite,” the fourth track unveiled from their forthcoming full-length ‘Grand Rising,’ due out digitally July 24 via vnclm_ and Create Music Group. Physical copies, including CD and double vinyl editions, are available now at gunshine.diggers.store.
“Finite” has a powerful, driving feel anchored by a super melodic chorus, exactly the kind of combination that defines Gunshine at their best. Guitarist and vocalist Austin Ingerman wrote the vocal melodies and central riff while working on a completely different song, dropped everything, and finished it on the spot. The title drew from Oliver Burkeman’s book ‘Four Thousand Weeks,’ which kept circling back to the phrase “we’re so finite.” Ingerman and vocalist Jordan Benson then sat down together to finish the lyrics. “Our time is limited,” Ingerman says, “and if you’re always seeking ‘the next thing,’ the present moment will pass you by.”
The track was recorded in Las Vegas with producer, engineer, and mixer Chris Collier, who handled production and mixing across the entire album. Collier’s credits include Korn, Mick Mars, Whitesnake, and Lynch Mob, and his heavy-hitting production value translates the songs with real sonic weight. Ingerman has worked with Collier for nine years, and the relationship shows.
‘Grand Rising’ is a 13-track project that pushes Gunshine into new sonic territory while staying grounded in the catchy vocal melodies, blistering guitar riffs, and lethal rhythm section that built their reputation. The album features a guest appearance from Michael Starr on “Shark Lounge,” one of 13 tracks the band describes as each being single-worthy in its own right.
Stream “Finite” now and watch the official music video. Physical copies ship now, with the digital release arriving July 24.
