Fishmans - Orange

Orange (typically written in capital letters as ORANGE) is the fourth studio album by Fishmans. It was first released on October 21, 1994 by Media Remoras, mostly recorded in previous months at Metropolis Studios in London, England. It would be the last Fishmans album to feature Hakase-Sun on keyboards. Despite its funk rock leanings, the album also heavily foreshadows Fishmans' future dream pop-oriented sound, such as songs like 帰り道 or Woofer Girl. On Fishmans' official website, the latter half of the album is described as "slow reggae", elaborating that this sound inspired their later albums. It also defines Orange as the band's turning point in direction. The album is the most universally praised of Fishmans' pre-Polydor works. .
