Fishmans was not a major artist in Japan, but rather a niche artist in a subculture that was popular with a certain segment of the population. And the people who attended Fishmans' live performances had good taste in clothes. I was kind of happy about that at the time.

I remember when I first heard this album, I had a very important exam the next day. I was panicking and anxious, had trouble sleeping. At night, I flipped through the albums I had on my phone and found this, figured I'd give it a whirl. I laid there for 35 minutes without opening my eyes, fully conscious but absolutely at ease. It was the first album I heard all the way through, without pausing even once. Once it was over, there wasn't a hint of anxiety. I knew I was going to ace that fucking exam and I did.

[@Steven-ce2eg]

This album makes me feel...well, it's really difficult to pin down a concrete description of what this song makes me feel because it's not about anything concrete like most songs, it's just feelings translated into musical form. It's so frustratingly abstract to articulate and yet, that's also what makes it so engaging. But if I had to say, I'd say this: it reminds me of an old memory, a very, very old childhood memory, that I'd forgotten about. It's not necessarily about anything important. A memory I haven't thought about in years and a memory I didn't even know existed that laid dormant in the deepest recesses of my mind, something that'd been there with me all this time but I hadn't even realized it. A memory in a distant childhood, lost in time, a memory that almost seems like it belongs to someone else. It's eerie but not scary. It's eerie and yet, strangely comfortable.

I unfortunately cannot get along with this song anymore, even thought I love it so much. I am at a pretty low state at the moment, Idk if its depression, but its definetly not happiness, maybe like confused. I remember listening to this a lot on the packed bus ride to school at 8.00, the bus would be filled with people and my legs would start to get uncomfortable after a while but i couldnt move. My whole thought process was that i knew for the next 8 hours, I was not going to have ANY fun, and I knew that for the next 2-5 years its not going to change from that. Even thought it might sound condescending, I absolutely cannot endure this type of shit grey life where im constantly exhausted and uncomfortable wherever I go. This song at the time made me forgot or numb the irritations, but now i cannot possibly listen to this song without getting sore. Online school has made me a little happier but I know that im going to go back eventually to that lifestyle, and its up to me to change that but I dont exactly have the motivation at the moment. Hopefully later I get a push and enjoy this song again..

[@joeyvanderheiden]

Hey guy, I hope you're doing okay. I'm not going to tell you how to get happy, because that is something you have to find out for yourself. And although it may seem like you won't find yourself, sooner or later, with enough effort, you will thrive and become the person you need to be. And then, I hope you live a happy fulfilling live. I don't know you but I pray that everything falls together for you. Stay strong, stranger.

As someone who graduated last year, i feel you. School is tough but you'll make it somehow.

I just discovered this album today, and I hope soon both of us will be able to enjoy it for a very long time. :)

[@Coolrot]

That’s how I’ve felt for the past year in quarantine. I don’t think I’m depressed, but it’s just been a blanket on nearly everything I do. I guess I don’t feel full happiness and I haven’t had a week of being happy like I used to. I just came across this song tonight and wanted to see what people were saying in the comments. I feel like I’ve been in a situation not too far off from what you faced. I’m hoping things go your way man, I’m personally hoping things go my way too. But as the guy above me said, it’s up to us to fit the pieces together to find happiness and fulfillment. I don’t know you either but I’ve got love for you and really hope we both see a happy future

[@puppylover3927]

[@t.4667]

This must be what spring is like to forest animals

[@user-pi1ut2yj7p]

Genuinely one of the best albums I've ever listened to

[@guitarmaniac004]

This music is from another world. So spacious. So calming.

[@Itchigo2254]

この音楽のおかげで、僕ら完全夢の中。 It's a pun with "bokura hanbun yume no naka" that means "we're half in a dream". With LONG SEASON, we're totally in a dream.

[@sunfucker2213]

One of the best songs of all time.

[@yeahbank0d699]

(10:25 pm sep 7) wow absolutely wow... Part 5 and 6 had me sobbing.I was looking at old pictures and I just miss the old days the days when I wasn't insecure when I had friends when life was fun but now I just don't know i love this album i really do ,i haven't had a good cry in so long I'm glad I found fisherman's today

[@sg_steven5094]

I am again returning to this album on KZbin. I have it and most of fishmans work on my music app (musicolet) and I listen to it frequently. Shinji sato voice and fishmans music really encapsulates life and feeling in a way no other music does for me. There is some exceptions i found but not many, if anyone has any feel free to comment them. Long season is life as much as Life is a long season, that is the sound, theme and feeling this music is.

[@T--------]

Beautifully put, I'd love to know what music you think gives a similar feeling 🤔 I honestly can't think of much else, the song that gives me the closest feeling to this is is probably "like antennas to heaven" by godspeed you black emperor, that song and album as a whole definitely feel like a journey and makes me feel just as alive as this, though it's way more bittersweet and long season feels "all-encompassing", so to speak, in a way not many other things do

[@indieoddjobs4766]

I do ears a service by listening to this at least once every couple of days. So beautifully constructed, I never get tired of this album!

[@maisyrusso8248]

My gosh, this is brilliant! Thank you so much. This pinpoints such a specific, indescribable feeling.

[@derryksmcdonell8513]

Theme music to a life-affirming moment.

[@edgehasbeenlost]

This is not just an album; this is an out of body experience.

[@somerandomperson8439]

the only album where u feel like ur floating even if ur sober

[@curly_wyn]

What was just a Japanese dub band became one of the greatest bands with one of the best albums in all of progressive pop and dream pop! Thank you, RateYourMusic!

[@LiamandIain]

If you haven't for some reason, listen to the live version! It's even better

[@MaddelynKayKay]

I'm new to this album and I must say that it is a game changer in my life. I appreciate the boldness that these artist achieved. I'm just sad that I didn't discover them until well after they created this beautiful piece of music.

最高のアルバムと最高のアルバムのあいだにはさまれた最高のアルバム

[@user-ly8fg8jt8c]

知っとるよ❤️

[@marisachi]

まさに

[@user-bt1rm6sq6d]

佐藤伸治、いやfishmansが誰もたどり着けない、とんでもない境地に達したことを証明するようなアルバム 喜怒哀楽すべての感情が感じられるようで、何もない、際限なく広がる孤独の様なものも感じる 不思議だ

[@litz679]

the most perfect album ever made

[@saturatedneowax]

*most perfectest

[@akiravelicka8363]

The type of album that makes me miss the good old times in 90's Japan, even tough i'm not japanese and born in 2000's

[@rajanalexander4949]

This is epicly beautiful. What a treat to randomly stumble upon this! Thank you for the upload, and to the AI which suggested this. 😉

[@emanueljose7103]

Escuchar este album en una tarde soleada de un domingo y mirando las nubes, no tiene precio. Este album es un soplo de viento a nuestras vidas, me hace emocionar y recordar que valio la pena estar vivo.

[@jackwhitney6283]

Es un cancion precioso, es la verdad. Este album haceme emocionante tambien, desculpeme porque espanol no es mi idomia nativa.

[@Glitchr10]

My entire life has led up to this moment KZbin recommends me a 35 minute single song album by a japanese band named fucking Fishmans

[@vieuxchene4782]

OMG I asked Ok Google to play a Tal Fishman's and I ended up on this video this is SOOOOOOO good really, I've never heard anything like it. This is probably the first time I'm proud I have a shitty English accent 😂

[@Alex-km7so]

Music Addict Haha glad you like it! One of my faves

[@dorio4396]

정말 미쳤냐고.. 이 음반 cd로 소장하고 있는데 사람이 살아서 이 정도의 흔적을 남기고 갔으면 성공한 인생이라고 본다. 오래된 음악인데도 세련되고 들을때마다 진짜 충격적이고 새것 같고 진보된 음악. 더군다나 이런 실험적인 음악이 듣기 좋다는게 더 이상스럽고 신기함.

Long Season when I'm alone: 6:57 Long Season when mom walks in the room: _toilet splashes, windchimes and whirly tube sounds_

[@user-ku4ex8fs6l]

私の中でこの方たちの音楽は世界で一番素晴らしいです🎼

[@protogon]

I don't know why but certain parts of this album feel like a whole new universe is being born, totally unreal

[@fujohorsegirl1773]

the album cover looks so nostalgic, like i've been there in a past life

[@1shyy524]

i know exactly what you mean

[@tofubaba1315]

nailed it

[@rexma4693]

Just finished it in one go. Absolutely amazing piece of art, one of the best albums I’ve heard. Thanks KZbin recommendations!

[@leonmorgan5659]

I was 16 in 1996 and my favourite artists were Stereolab DJ Shadow. If I had heard this, it would’ve been right up there with them. It’s just a shame I never got to ,and I only get to hear it at the age of 43 28 years later! I wonder if john Peel ever played this and I just missed it..

[@9outof10]

DJ Shadow! That's what I've been trying to remember for half an hour 😂

[@marcelinorossi1005]

I was born when this album was released. So proud of my year :)

[@Cri.]

lucky manz, this is beyond a realm we call reality in how it sounded to be made to sound, its now changing how time feels for the most part making some parts feel like seconds, stay proud brother

[@AnimalCollectiveArchive]

Besides the first track long season there is nothing else this album really offers

[@thomass.6833]

This is my first time listening to this, and I am on another planet!

[@user-vf3lb3ie4d]

最初に手に入れたのがこれで、当時は買う順番間違えたかなと思ったが、今思うと大正解だったと感じる

[@robertoremelli]

Thanks for putting it back up again!

[@meowchin]

How many views did the previous upload had?

[@shanks6190]

goodnight

[@user-xx3kq2ps1j]

ちょくちょく歌ってるところあるのにインストみたいな感じ 静かなのに独特 歌詞が意味無さげなのに哲学的 それらの矛盾が完璧に感じる 作業中のBGMに相応しい

[@losingmymindrnbro]

Listened to this album while tripping once... I don’t remember what happened but I think fishmans is the greatest band of all time

[@jconny65]

i love that more people are finding out about this album (and the fishmans in general). c:
