Pisces – 40 Days
Pisces’ “40 Days” is a beautiful mix of fuzzy folk rock and dreamy nostalgia, showing Sarah Negahdari’s creative range. Negahdari, best known as the powerful vocalist and guitarist of indie rock band Happy Hollows, creates a distinctive musical world in Pisces that sounds ethereal and natural. The song begins with a leading electric guitar that mirrors Neil Young’s folk-rock edge nevertheless wrapped in a lo-fi haze. The production has a “vintage” warmth, reconstructing the mood of the 1960s while staying unique and almost cinematic. It sounds like it belongs on a long-lost film soundtrack, switching between sad reflection and cruel rock fire. Sarah’s voice raises “40 Days” to new heights—pure, expressive, and simply beautiful. Her vocals provide an air of innocence and desire to the strong but melodic music, creating a wonderful contrast that contributes to the track’s beauty.
