'I LOVE FISH' is out July 8th on Grind Select:
Purchase: pinebarons.bandcamp.com/album/i-love-fish

During the mixing process of Pine Barons' last album, Mirage on the Meadow, frontman and multi-instrumentalist Keith Abrams stumbled upon the music of cult favorite Japanese band, Fishmans (active throughout the late 80’s and 90’s) and fell in love with their peerless mix of dream pop, psychedelic rock, trip-hop and dub/reggae. Unable to speak the Japanese language himself, Abrams set out to discover what the lyrics actually meant, and with the help of a Japanese-speaking friend, came up with lyrical English interpretations of the late Shinji Sato’s words. After Sato’s copyright successor passed along his blessing to move forward, I LOVE FISH was officially born.

I LOVE FISH is a tribute album in the truest sense. Also produced and engineered in house, Pine Barons brings its own flavor to the arrangements and compositions that comprise nine Fishmans songs, including ambitious fan favorite, the 30-minute plus “LONG SEASON”, a song that has never been attempted as a cover before. The band paints a picture of recording that track, describing: "we built custom wind chimes out of glockenspiel tone bars, bells, forks and knives which were all hanging from the rim of a bike tire which hung from the ceiling. Two mics coming out the ears of a mannequin head which was placed beneath the spinning wind chimes were used to record it for a binaural effect."

Abrams recalls hearing Sato’s voice for the first time, noticing that “without even knowing what the lyrics were, I felt such a strong connection to the voice that sang them. It confirms to me the genuine beauty of that voice and how universal music truly is."

Holding Patterns

Lily

You let the lake turn into waves crashing in 
if it’s missing you can’t patch it 
I’m trying but can’t help us in 
cause its liminal and slow passing  

It feels radical to hold back
And you keep thinking I’ll lose track 
Cause it’s liminal, a slow pass

A slow pass
   
Is it liminal it won’t pass 
A long night awake you can’t match it
I’m trying, make it last
On those empty roads and sunglasses

It feels radical to hold back
And you keep thinking I’ll lose track 
Cause it’s liminal, a slow pass

A slow pass

Lyrics

I think I see it now
Can’t believe it how I missed it once
Who’s been keeping count?
I can’t leave, I’m looking for a rush
   
I would like to like myself
I wonder why
I would like to like myself
I wonder why

Through another round
I hate these people and I hate this town 
Never been this loud
It doesn’t matter I’m just mouthing sounds

I would like to like myself
I wonder why
I would like to like myself
I wonder why
