Indie88 Premiere: Pine Barons share ‘Long Season’ from their new Fishmans tribute album ‘I LOVE FISH’

Philadelphia indie-pop artist Pine Barons have shared “Long Season” from their Fishmans tribute album, I LOVE FISH, premiering now on Indie88.

Pine Barons are ready to honour iconic 80s/90s group from Japan, Fishmans, adding their own twist to the band’s experimental psych-folk sound. Throughout the album, they honour the intricacy of the original record, while adding their own spin to it. “Long Season” is definitely a standout, as the band ran through a field of snow geese with 3 samplers for a transition.

“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,” Pine Barons explain of the recording process. “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.”

Listen to “Long Season” below.

The 30-minute plus “Long Season” has never been attempted as a cover before. Pine Barons member Keith Abrams remembers what it was like hearing Sato’s voice for the first time.

“Without even knowing what the lyrics were, I felt such a strong connection to the voice that sang them,” Abrams adds. “It confirms to me the genuine beauty of that voice and how universal music truly is.”
