Ranking The Marillion Studio Albums

[@Terrabade]

Hey Prog Corner! I don't comment on KZbin videos much, but I just want to say I really really love this channel. I originally discovered you through Larry's channel, on a few of his live streams, and as a fellow lover of prog I naturally couldn't resist. Feels criminal watching these videos for free, so I have become a channel member. I hope this helps out.

[@TheProgCorner]

Wow, wow, wow!!! 🔥🔥🔥 Thank you!!! (I love Larry!!!)

[@krishouseholder261]

Well done Scot🎯✌🏼 I enjoy Fish but ‘H’ just has such emotion that pulls me in! Ian is such a solid drummer too😎

[@TheProgCorner]

Ian is the secret sauce!!!

[@ryancalhoun2910]

For Seasons End don't forget The King of Sunset Town, one of my favorite tracks from the band.

[@TheProgCorner]

You’re right. It’s a stunning track!!! Did I not mention? (I forget.) if not, consider that fixed!!!

[@TheAlbumReviewchannel]

Hey Scott. What an amazing and powerful rundown of albums this one was. I just love your knowledge of the band and I’m going straight off to listen to Marbles. You are the man!

[@notnowjohn765]

Marbles and Clutching are my top faves too! Alongside F.E.A.R and Brave, cracking band to do a ranking for 👍🏻

[@TheProgCorner]

No doubt!!! That was fun!!!

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

great list!

[@TheHarold1966]

My ranking top 6: 1. Misplaced Childhood. 2. Script For A Jester's Tear 3. Fugazi 4. Clutching At Straws 5. Season's End 6. An Hour Before It's Dark. Chris Kimsey produced Emerson, Lake & Palmer: Brain Salad Surgery. See my Marillion All Album Show on Harold's Prog Rock Show.

[@TheProgCorner]

I see a pattern there!!!

[@classicarcadeamusementpark4242]

Same order for me 1 - 5. In some ways I might like Season's End better than Clutching at Straws. I'm not sure, close on those two.

[@alberthoffman3418]

Great ranking. I agree with everything, except I put Brave at number one and Marbles at three. Brave is a masterpiece in my eyes. Vocals and instruments flowed as one, from start to finish. It also solidified Steve Hogarth as my favorite vocalist. Love your channel. Each episode is a lot of fun

[@TheProgCorner]

Brave and Marbles!!! H’s finest work.

[@toddhill7483]

Thanks Scot. I really need to explore this discography. Only heard a few tracks here and there over the years.

[@trojanceliac1002]

Hey Scott! your channel is awesome! Your passion and knowledge is infectious! I'm getting back into Prog after first getting introduced to Genesis (Foxtrot & ..By the pound) when I was 15. Now I'm 43 I'm stumbling upon some classics that you've found me that I've overlooked both past and present! Thanks man!!

[@TheProgCorner]

It’s never too late to come home!!!! 🏡❤️👍

[@TheVinylverse]

This was great! It's a pretty big undertaking ranking Marillion albums so you have my respect for that. They have so many masterpieces. Marbles being one of them. I really appreciate that you had An Hour Before It's Dark so high. What an album! Marillion have hands down been my most listened to group in 2022. That was totally unexpected coming into this year. Fish, H, and Steve Rothery get a lot of the notoriety but I think Mark Kelly is an unsung hero of the band. So great with textures, melody and laying down the floor of the song. All of those guys are great though. Fun video!

[@TheProgCorner]

Mark Kelly serves each song’s needs. He’s a magician!!! (And that Marathon record from a couple years back was pretty awesome…)

[@glynlewis5512]

I've listened to six Marillion albums: Script For a Jester's Tear, Fugazi, Misplaced Childhood, Clutching At Straws, Holidays In Eden, Marbles. I'm surprised that Marbles is your favourite Marillion album; I would put it solidly at the bottom of the six that I've just listed. Apart from Fantastic Place, I find the album to be a drudge and a drag. Having said that, keep up the excellent work, Scott.

[@TheProgCorner]

Marbles took a little time but I think I like it like that!!!

[@VictorLazarov]

Love clutching straws & FEAR. I really appreciate your honesty in these videos. I usually find when someone really likes a band & rates albums they won’t come out & say they didn’t like the album for whatever reason whereas you do but give solid reasons....bad production bad songs etc. Really lovin this channel.

[@TheProgCorner]

Thanks, Joe! That really means a lot to me!!!

[@genericusername1365]

I'll give ya my top ten (subject to change except for #1 and #2). It's all personal preference for each of us: 1. Clutching At Straws (far and away my fave Marillion album, and one of my top 25 albums of all time). 2. Misplaced Childhood (this one gets a lot of attention for a reason). 3. Script For A Jester's Tear (the first full album that started it all, but don't forget the stuff before it). 4. Seasons End (What a way to start off for H. Has my fave Marillion song on it). 5. This Strange Engine (I find I keep listening to it). 6. Brave (at first I found it to be mostly boring, but after repeated listens it finally hit me how excellent and deep it is). 7. Marbles (the best post 2000, and I don't usually like double albums, but this one is good). 8. Afraid Of Sunlight (wow, Marillion had it going on in the mid 90s). 9. Fugazi (Similar to Script. It only pales because it's sandwiched in between two masterpieces). 10. Anoraknophobia (several really good stories and performances here). I haven't heard Radiation or most of An Hour Before It's Dark. FEAR was really good live, but the album just sounds like the same song over and over. The rest are good or at least OK.

[@PatSmith-cp8rg]

Thanks. Will look into more from them.

[@TheProgCorner]

👍👍👍

[@bellce0]

It's pretty amazing to me just how different every ranking of Marillion's albums falls into place. I've seen at least 5-6 different albums ranked as the #1. Heck, I'd probably surprise myself if I sat down and compiled a ranking. Regardless, I love this band!

[@TheProgCorner]

And if I shot that video today it would be different. That Holidays In Eden reissue really opened my eyes… Yeah, they’re pretty much amazing.

Hey Scott!!! This channel is definitely my favorite for prog rock vids. I’ve been getting into jethro tull recently so I was wondering if we could get a worst to best on them?

[@TheProgCorner]

That is coming!!!!

[@mikekivinen]

I was a latecomer to Marillion. Never got around to listening to them until 2017! Misplaced Childhood was the first album of theirs i heard and it blew me away. I've since picked up and very much appreciated a few others, but Marbles tops them all. I was glad you gave it the number one slot.

[@TheProgCorner]

Absolutely!!!!!!

[@georggabriel6998]

this list is amazing!!! I agree totally! I actually worked @virgin megastore as brave came out. man did we loooove that album. Marbles #1 ? yes, first pick for newbies? yes please Clutching is my late 80s soundtrack through viennesse rain (and smoke... and party and drinks yes) great conent!

[@TheProgCorner]

Thank you, my friend!!!

[@AllMediaReviewsPodcast]

Nice rankings Scot! It seems you favor the more proggy H stuff and the Fish stuff 1st and foremost, which is not uncommon among the Prog community. And you go back quite awhile with them, much longer than many fans that I know who 1st found them in the 90's or even 2000's when Marbles reached a lot of people. My Rankings are in that video I made last year, but just to summarize, and I think I have posted this before, I consider 5 of their albums a perfect 5-stars: Brave Clutching at Straws Misplaced Childhood Marbles Afraid of Sunlight all of the others, the order has been moved around a lot. I will say, many of their albums have warranted second and 3rd reviews and my opinion has changed about. Radiation and Holidays in Eden certainly fall in that category. Also an album like This Strange Engine I was pretty into initially, but now I'm not finding I enjoy it like I once did. So, they can be a band whose music can work better for you years later when listening again.

[@TheProgCorner]

Ha ha!!! I watched that video you did. Yeah, my ranking is pretty predictable. No real bomb shells….unfortunately!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

[@Hartlor_Tayley]

Nice rundown. Thanks

[@davidjb1701]

Invisible Man is one of my favourite tracks by the band. Great honest ranking but I would rank all the Fish albums ahead of everything else then AHBID and FEAR. I agree there is some poor efforts too and I go along with your comments regarding Radiation etc

[@johnheaton6705]

Thanks for this, I've just got into these and like both singers of course, why wouldn't you! I'm using your vid as a guide and have the top 7 in mind and just have the CD of Steven Wilson re-do of Brave in the post already with others to follow as remasters too if I can find them, keep up the good work & all the best from Bradford West Yorkshire UK + I'm a new subscriber.

[@DEUCALION109]

Sounds that can’t be made is one of my favorites. Invisible ink, lucky man, etc excellent record And tooootally agree with Marbles- that was the first album I heard when I was 17, and ever since Marillion has been part of my Fall’s/winter’s playlist

[@TheProgCorner]

Nice!!!!!!!👍

Great ranking Scott, though I think Misplaced Childhood and Brave are my 1 and 2🤘🤘🤘

[@KilroyWasHere83]

The thing with Holidays in Eden, its not as much the band not knowing what to do with Hogarth as it is the label not knowing what to do with the band at that point and wanting an album for the radio.

[@TheProgCorner]

EMI was thirsty!!!!

[@keithmusgrove5517]

This strange engine is my favourite Marillion album...although this fits the cap close to my poll....

[@herrdwabash]

Excellent ranking, great job! I am a really big Fish fan, so the first four albums are at the top for me, with Clutching at Straws at No. 1. After those albums, my favorites are Marbles, Brave and Seasons End. Do you think you might do an album ranking of Fish's solo catalog?

[@TheProgCorner]

That’s a great idea!!!

[@julianirving9868]

Great video and not too hard to argue with the ranking. Followed them since getting the 12”EP in 1982, (feels like yesterday). Along with Rush they are the band I have seen live the most. If you’ve not done so already check out Steve Rothery’s solo work

[@TheProgCorner]

I have only heard The Ghosts Of Pripyat and it is awesome!!!

[@synen]

I am a long time Marillion fan, been one for nearly 40 years, so will post my Top 10 as I consider all these very strong albums, the list is a bit different from our esteemed host, and that is ok, love his hair anyway :) 1) Misplaced Childhood (First two are interchangeable, they are both perfect albums) 2) Clutching at Straws 3) Marbles 4) Afraid of Sunlight 5) Script for a Jester's Tear 6) FEAR 7) An Hour Before It's Dark 8) Season's End 9) Brave 0) Fugazi The rest I consider ok albums save for couple of songs here and there, for instance, the song This Strange Engine is incredible, but the album itself is quite weak; Sounds That Cant Be Made has the incredible Gaza and about 2-3 more good songs, but not a strong album per se, Holidays in Eden has Splintering Heart, and the same goes for the rest I did not mention, they arent overall consistently great, just couple of great tracks surrounded by average songs at best. The biggest surprise in my case is Brave, many hold it in high regard, it's great but not one of my absolute favorites.

[@TheProgCorner]

I have a weird connection to Marbles. And I’m not exactly sure why but it just rings my bell. 👍👍👍

[@synen]

@@TheProgCorner Its a great album no doubt.

[@themediumcheese]

[@kenborody3296]

I think you nailed the top 5! I like Happiness and Strange Engine quite a bit more than most I guess....I love Pavement, rank em! lol

[@TheProgCorner]

Pavement!!! So cool that you like them too!!!

[@claudio130]

All albums with Fish are simply masterpieces. From the H era, Marbles is the best one but below the Fish era. Just to be fair maybe my top three are Clutching, Misplaced (1-2 interchangeable) and Marbles.

[@arthurmol6875]

Great list mate!! Marillion is my band and i cam agree with your list. CHECK the title song from SomeWhere else it is a masterpiece ! Couple of months than they got there concerts in Holland....

[@TheProgCorner]

[@ProggyGoat]

Interesting ranking. I love Marbles and Clutching, but I think F.E.A.R and Brave are my favourite Marillion albums. I would have Script a lot higher and Misplaced a bit lower. Interestingly, the 3 tracks you mentioned from This Strange Engine are the only 3 tracks I have from this album.

Top 10 1. Script for a Jester's Tear (2 CD edition with Grendel Fair Deal Studio mix on the second disc, my fav Marillion song but only in this version) 2. Fugazi 3. Misplaced Childhood 4. Clutching at Straws 5. Holidays in Eden 6. Seasons End 7. Radiation 8. Anoraknophobia 9. Brave 10. Marbles I can barely stand Hogarth's voice but I think his most honest performance was on Holidays in Eden, it's his music, he's not a prog rock singer.

I had Happiness way lower. Maybe I need to listen to it again?

[@OurFamilyInMotion]

@@TheProgCorner Happiness Vol. 1 is incredible. A grower though for sure. Atmospheric but uplifting. I love it start to finish. Trap The Spark and State of Mind are two songs I love Volume 2 is basically a b-side collection. Some good songs and some iffy songs. Not their best. I separate the volumes into two albums when I think about them. I don't see them as one double album.

[@TheProgCorner]

Yeah, volume one is solid but i didn’t know volume two consisted of b sides. Explains a lot!!!

[@markmaxwell1013]

Misplaced Childhood was the first album of theirs I heard so I have a soft spot for it. Also prefer the Fish era. Nice list!

[@classicarcadeamusementpark4242]

Same. Not only because of Fish's voice, but I find the instrumental music more interesting in that period too and Mark Kelly's synth sounds were just amazing in the 80s. The 90s were a time of drastic change in the music industry, and synths were really different when used at all later on.

[@AudioAl5195]

Scot, thank you for your review of my favorite band. I was just in Montreal for the Marillion Weekend. I have seen them many times and all three shows were completely different and each had an energy that was beyond amazing. Talking to everyone afterward everyone thought each night was the best. It was so good that no one could agree on which show was best. I’ve attended hundreds of concerts and I have never experienced any concerts where the audience is so much a part of the show and where the energy is that high. If you have never seen them then you have to find a way. Regarding your review I almost totally agree. For me “This Strange Engine” is too low on your list. It is a go to for me. Flip Fugazi with TSE and you have my list. I also think we give “Less is More” an unfair wrap. They did something different and maybe we are too harsh. If you watch the live at Cadogan Hall dvd of this album it works so much better than the studio version. Sorry I went long but thank you, I love your channel and I hope one day we can meet up somewhere . I would love to talk to you at length! Al

Great choice at number one! Personally I'd rank all the other H era albums higher and all the Fish era albums lower, but that's just me. Got very burned-out on Fish early on, whereas the Hogarth albums have stuck with me over time and I've never grown tired of any of them.

II won't be able to rank Marillion albums. My faves change just anytime ! At least I could name the ones I'm not really connected with, but for sure I love them all more or less. I eventually would have added "B Sides Themselves" even if it's not a real "new material album" but, even if I'm not a great fan of the closing live song, this contains a handful of shiny pearls you can't find on any other album.

At that point I finally had enough. Not another Marillion disc has been added to my collection since. When "H" said, essentially, to hell with you prog fans, I said, well bite my ass "H", I'm done with you. I'm a fan of the music, not the band. If a band betrays me with their sound, I'm done with them. The same applies to Genesis, ELP, and Yes, which they did also. I will say I like several of the Yes incarnations, but not where they landed on their last three albums...boring. Now for the list. I will start at #1:Clutching at Straws #2Script For a Jesters Tear #3 Misplaced Childhood #4 Fugazi; my least favorite Fish album, but still better than any "H" disc. #5 Seasons End #6 Holidays in Eden #7 Brave #8...and all the rest that are not worth listening to for my taste.
