An Emotional Fish is the debut album by the Irish band An Emotional Fish, released in 1990.[1][2] It peaked at No. 40 on the UK Albums Chart.[3] The first single was "Celebrate", which was followed by "Grey Matter".[4] The band supported the album with UK and North American tours that included playing the CMJ Music Marathon.[5][6][7]
Produced by Tim Palmer, the album was recorded in Dublin.[8][9] The band chose Palmer because they admired his ability to capture a "live" sound.[8] Many of the tracks feature a reverbed guitar effect.[10] Most of the songs were written by frontman Gerard Whelan, who steered away from traditional Irish music influences.[11] "Brick It Up" is about the problems that arise in social conversations.[12]
