About Fishmans
Fishmans, a pioneering Japanese band formed in Tokyo in 1987, are celebrated for their unique blend of psychedelic, dub, and dream-pop sounds that have left an indelible mark on the music scene. Founded by vocalist Shinji Sato, guitarist Kensuke Ojima, and drummer Kin-Ichi Motegi, the band's lineup solidified with the addition of bassist Yuzuru Kashiwabara in 1988 and keyboardist Hakase-Sun in 1990. Known for their distinctive sound, Fishmans' music is characterized by Sato's distinctive vocals, Motegi's dynamic drumming, and Kashiwabara's rocksteady basslines. Despite facing challenges such as being dropped by record companies and low sales, their influence has grown posthumously, with a tribute album released in 2004 featuring covers by diverse artists. Fishmans' legacy continues to captivate fans and critics alike, with their music being hailed as a landmark of Japanese rock, particularly their seminal album "Long Season." Their journey, marked by both triumph and turmoil, is chronicled in the documentary "The Fishmans Movie," which premiered in Japanese theaters and has since garnered international acclaim.
