An American band comprised of four members that go beyond writing music, as opposed to current main stream musical acts, but rather compose it in many different complex forms of music. Most compositions leave room for improvisation when preformed live. Thanks to the invention of free thought, they are widely preferred by a variety of people (not just dirty stinky hippies who think they're cool and ultra-liberal yet really only know phish slightly better than fifth grade math). However, they are also despised but many close-minded people who hate the band simply because of their stereotyped fan base (see: Eric Cartman). Although not for everyone, Phish's music will strike an immediate chord with listeners which to some, will sound flat and lost, but to other feels sharp, original and transcendental.
"Some dirty Phish fan tried to sell me junk, I vow to hate everyone associated with the name"

"I could go see forty Phish shows by myself with no mind-altering substances and die happy."
