From their inception in 1988 until their hiatus in 2006,
Lungfish was renowned for intense creative productivity, releasing albums annually from the years 1992–2000. But what is not generally known is that volumes of
Lungfish material never saw the light of day. The 1999
A.C.R. session offers a rare glimpse into some of this elusive material and by extension, into the
Lungfish creative process. These 10-songs were recorded and mixed by Craig Bowen at Baltimore’s A.C.R. Studios but never released. After the session the band decided to continue writing new songs – ultimately recording at Inner Ear Studios what became
Necrophones (2000). Six of these songs were re-recorded and released on Necrophones, while four others remained unreleased, until now.
