Marillion - Seasons End

 

Zzzzzzzz

 

imo the fifth Marillion album is Vigil which is brilliant compared to this snooze fest.

 

 

I take it you don't like the Hogarth era of the band, otherwise you wouldn't be saying such nonesense. Along with 'Holidays In Eden', THE best Hogarth era Marillion disc, with classic tracks like 'Easter' 'The Space' 'Hooks In You', 'King Of Sunset Town' and the b'sides of 'The Bell In The Sea' and The Release'.

Not nonsense mate. Marillion were never the same after they parted ways with Fish. Lost that magical touch...and yes I far prefer Vigil to Seasons End. I agree that the best 2 songs are Hooks and The Space...both v good tracks.

Marillion became a completely different band once Fish left ... I'm with Glen on this, 'Vigil ...' is a far better album than 'Seasons ...'. That said, I love 'Holidays In Eden' and 'Brave', and I've seen the Hogarth-fronted band a couple of times ... they're just not 'Marillion' anymore (for me, at least) ... they hardly ever play any of the Fish-era material now, and those are the songs that put the band on the map ...

I saw the Hogarth fronted Marillion on the Seasons End tour. He was OK, but as you say it was basically a different band without Fish. I didnt really bother after that.

 

I still rate the band as musicians, but the life and blood of that band was Fish, and of course the amazing lyrics from the early albums.

 

Having said that I only own Vigil from Fish's solo career. The last album was decent and a hark back to the old Marillion sound in places, but it was pretty dark and didnt grab me as I would have liked.

 

He was still superb on his acoustic tour tho - and the gig at Riga was one of the best i've witnessed....from any band/artist. Mesmerising.
