Album Notes

Bursting forth with a lush sparkle like a fine champagne, The History Of Fishes piles on the melody and texture like solid sedimentary rock. With a laidback yet catchy vibe, The History Of Fishes is the soundtrack to your Sunday afternoon gardening marathon. Alex Arrowsmith captures the depth of the 21st century mood on songs like "No Wonder" and "Borrowed Time" while burrowing further into the subterranean tunnels of the soul on "The Ghost Of Swan Island" and "The Oil Fields." Arrowsmith taps into a unique, polished sound while vigorously uncovering the road signs of our times. Even your neighborhood librarian can't deny this wholly original pop masterpiece.

Writing a good original melody is no mean feat. This guys know how. More than that, he writes interesting lyrics too. Take a little time and really listen, it's worth it. It doesn't take long to realize that a lot of time and effort has gone into creating such a free and easy sound. Worth every one of the five stars I gave it.
