What It Is To Burn is the first full length CD released by Finch. It was produced by Mark Trombino who has produced albums for Jimmy Eat World amongst others. Daryl Palumbo from New York band Glassjaw makes a guest appearance on two songs, "Grey Matter" and "Project Mayhem". The first pressing of the album contained a demo version of "What It Is to Burn" — which was originally on the compilation album Welcome to the Family (2001) — instead of the re-recorded version that was on later pressings.
