CD Fish – State Of Mind

Fish – State Of Mind (EMI, 1989) marks the bold beginning of one of progressive rock's most iconic voices embarking on his solo career. Released as the lead single ahead of his acclaimed debut album, Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors, this track captures the transition of the former Marillion frontman into a new, introspective era of songwriting.

Described at the time by Q Magazine as a "clarion call for a gentle uprising," State of Mind showcases Fish’s signature lyrical depth and narrative flair. It serves as a vital piece of music history, standing as the opening statement of a career defined by poetic, socially conscious themes and a deeply personal world view.
