This was such a great video! Firstly I appreciate you didn't have that Fish-era bias that a lot of people had, and you were so objective with all the albums. I personally prefer H's voice, style and albums so much more. Your list was great and you presented it really well - with really nice insight and objective thoughts on each album. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you have on your channel :)

Steve Hogarth's emotive, beautiful, voice blows Fish out of the water. I also love the symphonic nature of Marillion...after Fish. I love both Marillion's but to me...the present line-up is my preferred.

Excellent review mate. I have just rediscovered the majestically magnificent band Marillion. I loved and still do the first 4 albums with Fish, each one a classic in its own right and subsequently followed Fish on his solo career. I remember back in the day buying Seasons end and Holidays in Eden and thinking wow this is different but still pretty good, then life got in the way and they dropped off my radar. Just done a 2 month tour of India and then a week in “jail” on returning home to Jakarta, Indonesia and I downloaded all the remaining albums on Spotify and basically have not been able to stop listening to them.... I am indeed mad with myself that I denied myself these magnificent albums over the past almost 30 years.... Hogarth lyrics and performance as a vocalist is nothing short of magnificent and the chemistry with the rest of the band is stunning. The textures and depths of lyric, keyboards, Rothery’s guitar and the bass/ drum support is a joy to behold!!! On the cusp of displacing my all time favorite band Blue Oyster Cult.... Agree Afraid of Sunlight, Marbles and Fear are superb albums, as is Seasons End and the classic first 4, I still love Script and indeed just watched an emotionally charged H singing this.... breathtaking. Need to absorb more of the other dozen or so offerings now.....

Thanks for that, always interesting to hear other's ratings. No point disagreeing, everyone who actually clicks on this will know there are 17 albums here that are all well worth listening to. Just to say, for me, the two I'd have to put close or at the top are Marbles (partly because it was the album that switched me back on to Marillion after a very long gap) and This Strange Engine. I hear what your saying about the style of that album, but I like the folkiness, and any album that starts with "Man of a Thousand Voices", ends with "This Strange Engine" and has "Estonia" somewhere in between has got to brilliant. You could just cut it down to those three tracks and it would still be a wonderful album (and I happen to like the other tracks too).

Some of Marillion's music I really like, but because their music is so varied I don't think there's a single album that I really like all the way through. And sometimes, with their longer songs, there are even parts of songs that I skip through. The song This Strange Engine, I find the intro to be boringly plogging and the end to be a screaming mess, but the stuff in the middle to be wonderful. I've actually done my own audio edits of some of the longer songs to cut out the bits I don't like. The song Sounds That Can't Made, my version starts just before the synth solo as I find the first half to be dull but the 2nd half great. And yet, Gaza is one of the few long Marillion songs I feel happy to listen to all the way through.

I personally don’t find This Strange Engine boring or a mess to me it works but I know what you mean about skipping some parts of songs, but when I see those overly long songs live it just works I prefer those skippable songs played live and feel there’s no need for any skipping apart from interior Lulu I wish Marillion would just skip that song completely

I do love Brave especially the 5.1 mix, Marbles, Afraid of Sunlight is brilliant, Season's End, Sounds that Can't be made, FEAR. All of them are great though. Not so keen on Fish era, for me they were nothing more than a Genesis rip off, however, Misplaced Childhood showed a bit of promise but still too much like Genesis with Floyd touches but too derivative. Clutching at Straws showed more promise and the only one of that era I listen to quite a lot. Their first album especially sounds like Peter Gabriel era Genesis and single with Grendel is a Suppers Ready rip off, same time signatures and even a similar ending, it's just copying. H is a much better vocalist, emotional and original. Marillion for me are now a great band, possibly the best. The best thing that happened to them was Fish leaving.

@@RockersBeerReview Hogarth is not a rock singer, they made a bad choice at the time, now it really doesn't matter. I like dark Marillion about love and lust, about sleeping pills crashed on the floor. This is the real Marillion. They should have changed their name at least.

I'm a huge fan of Marillion/Fish era. You have to realise what each album did represented on their time, masterpiece misplaced childhood was consider one of the best albums by mídia in 1985 and one of the best concept albums ever. And then in 1987 Marillian came up with clutching at straws which I consider the best rock album ever. Unfortunately Fish left, Steve Hogarth joined Marillian but his vocals did not work for me. Saying that, I do not agree with that list at all. Top four albums are The script, Fugazi, misplaced and clutching, on that order. Marillian with Steve Hogarth sounds a kind of boring, sorry it's my opinion, no one cares, I know...

Obviously you are old school - I’m more a Steve Hogarth fan but I do love clutching at straws with Fish! I’m in my late 40s so was too young to see them in 84!

Fish is Marillion, always will be. The rest is the soft AOR of the Steve Hogarth Band.

I like Fish but I like Hogarth more - the fact that Clutching at straws was my number 2 albums proves that.

Why's that? Because he didn't have his albums as the Top 4? C'mon now. CAS was #2!!! Idk what you Fish people want besides everyone thinking that his stuff was the top of the Marillion catalog.

Każdy kto zna się na muzyce grupy Marillion raczej nie ma wątpliwości co do tego, że Fugazi lub Clutchig jest ich największym dziełem. Reszta to ignoranci.

I lost interest in checking your ranking as soon as you ranked 13th Marillion debut album Script for a Jester's Tear. The rest of the Fish era is also very low ranked. This is very disrespectful for such a great band in their origins. Unfortunately in all these bunch of years with Hogarth they have lost identity, personality and authenticity, they have had only flashes with some great songs of the great band they were back in their origins. Even their Marillion logo has lost its identity since the second album in the Hoghart era.
