Singles from Say Hello to Sunshine
  1. "Bitemarks and Bloodstains"

Say Hello to Sunshine is the second album by Finch, released on June 7, 2005. This album signaled a sharp departure from the band's last release, What It Is to Burn. Say Hello to Sunshine introduced a harder, gritty sound, with more screaming and a less of a pop-rock sound compared to earlier songs such as "Letters To You". The album received mixed reactions. Some fans have come away disappointed having been expecting a similar sound to their previous, where as others embraced the change in direction. Although all songs are played with a standard rock group's instruments, several of them vary in tone, melody and theme.

This was thought to be the final album from Finch as less than a year after its release the band announced it is officially on "indefinite hiatus". Regarding this statement, Finch have confirmed their return with the confirmation of their appearance at the next Bamboozle festival in the US in 2008. In addition, they have also announced US tour dates for 2008 and a slot at the next Give It A Name Festival this year.
