	Marillion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Marillion are widely considered within the industry to have been one of the first acts to have fully recognised and tapped the potential for commercial musicians to interact with their fans via the Internet, circa 1996, and are nowadays often characterised as a Rock 'Web Cottage Industry'.
		Marillion are currently recording new material with engineer Michael Hunter for their upcoming fourteenth studio album (currently untitled) expected to be released in early 2007.
		Following an idea implemented by King Crimson, Marillion have examined their archives of concert recordings and are releasing the best shows (either by performance quality, by sound quality, or importance/rarity of the show) on a subscription basis.

		For the early part of their career, Marillion were arguably over-rewarded (their second album 'Fugazi', for example is probably their worst but it was a considerable hit), while their latter years have produced some bold and beautiful music that has been ignored by the commercial mainstream.
		Marillion have rewarded their fans well, however, 'Marbles' (available as a single or double CD – they are Marillion, after all) is a wonderful thing.
		Marillion are one of the most under-rated bands of the past 20 years and they had the crowd at the almost sold out Civic Hall still with anticipation and longing.

		Marillion is one of those strange bands that seem to care more about the music than about the money or the fame (although they deserve to have them too!).
		Marillion is perhaps the band that relates most to its fans, including us in almost all of their work, asking opinions and feedback.
		Marillion have never been a band scared of re-inventing themselves, and this is again true in the change of gear from 'Radiation'.

	Marillion: Doing Business With Their Fans
		The majority of acts that have made it past two decades are either bloated caricatures of their former selves, going through the motions whenever a property tax bill hits the doormat, or touring relentlessly banging out all the old hits in a cabaret style, or finding ever more unlikely collaborations to kept themselves fresh.
		The reasons for Fish leaving Marillion are well documented, but in short it was the old chestnut of musical differences — which, in reality, meant he no longer saw himself as 20 percent of a band.
		Both Marillion as a unit with their new singer, and their old singer Fish, relaunching himself as a solo act, were now two pieces of EMI property.

		Marillion emerged from the short-lived progressive rock revival of the early '80s to become one of the most enduring cult acts of the era.
		Marillion issued their debut album, Script for a Jester's Tear, in 1983, and on the strength of a relentless touring schedule they won a loyal following.
		Marillion's record label, EMI, gave the band a higher budget for the next album and the result of 15 months labor was Brave, a concept album that mixed classic symphonic progressive rock with standard rock.

		Marillion made musical history when they pre-sold 13,000 copies of Anoraknophobia via their website -- www.marillion.com -- to fans before the band had written or recorded the album.
		Marillion are impossible to categorize musically and impossible to ignore once someone listens to the band just once.
		With Marillion we are passionate about every aspect of it and it has to be 110% all of it all the time, so we would rather throw something out than compromise; indeed we always throw more music away than we keep.

	Marillion
		Let me put it another way, Marillion would have to try really hard to make me not like their music but all the audience need to do to put me off a show is to sit quietly and clap politely between songs.
		This was our first concert with Marillion for over 15 years and apart from the strange location (inside some curved roofed football pitch or cowshed depending on who you talk to) it did not let us down.
		Marillion were also on top form with H performing his gymnastics during the Easter encore by climbing up the rigging.

		Marillion, in common with other recent chart-toppers John Otway and The Alarm, have no place in the music industry's strategic plans.
		This gave Marillion a marketing war chest which it has used to pay for advertising and PR for the new single, plus promoters and pluggers to ensure maximum airplay.

		Behind "Marbles" facade of generous dance beats and FX jiggery pokery lays the stubborn prog beast of old, albeit one that acknowledges the recent past more readily than when Fish was at the helm all those years ago.
		The problem for Marillion in the early days is that they would always be thought of an inferior Genesis 'tribute' band and not taken seriously in their own right - I myself dismissed them as such for many years.
		Marillion are one of those bands with a hard core following that makes it hard to find a non-biased view.

	DPRP : CONCERT REVIEW ARCHIVE
		Besides the fact that it was very unlike Marillion, the song itself didn't appeal to me at all.
		The need to be loud and 'hit again and again' just isn't what Marillion used to be for me. They used to offer a fine blend of ballads, rock songs and atmospheric moody material.
		The band's main set finished with Overlook the epic from their latest album, which again showed that Tracy is much more confident with her own work, that with that of the previous era of the band.

	MARILLION Marbles reviews and MP3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		After so many ayers of waiting, marillion throws away their best work ever, with a lot of concept, soul, musicianship and of course feeling, perhaps, the wait has been long, but it finally paid of, from start to end, the prog sounds mesmerizes the listener, arousing the senses and creating an atmosphere of complete awarness.
		Marillion is without doubt one of the bands that proved very influential in progmusic during the eighties and nineties.
		I most certainly think the Marillion deserved the apreciation of many listeners since their attitude towards music is an example for many others and because they always stuck to their own ideas.

	Marillion
		Marillion are not what you think they are.
		No, their brand of modern and relevant music has more in common with the likes of Massive Attack than any of the seventies prog rock bands they are usually disparagingly compared to.
		In an era that can be accurately described as the musical dark ages, where the music industry is slowly being destroyed by the proliferation of saccharin and soulless boy/girl bands, Marillion are digging in, fighting back and creating contemporary music that means something.

	TWAS 26: Marillion, Comsat Angels
		Marillion, however, have timed their new album to reach me within days of Big Country's, and this one is even on sale in the US as you read this.
		Marillion put out Holidays in Eden in 1991, an unexpectedly mellow album of smooth pop songs that went over pretty badly with the segments of Marillion's audience that were still wishing for a return to the eight-minute labyrinths of "Assassing" or "Forgotten Sons".
		Marillion then took a break from new albums for a bit, releasing a best-of and some singles to fill the time.

	Marillion - Marbles - Self Distributed by Marillion - CD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		I worry because I know how good they are, how each release builds upon the previous work, how the essentials of solid musicianship, atmosphere and individuality are respected, and how each release seems to be launched into a vacuum, unknown to the larger audience beyond a core group of devoted fans.
		On every Marillion release there is a song that just gathers you up in a feeling, moves you and soars into the closing portion.
		They’re not trying to be an alt-country rock band, they’re Marillion throwing some alt-country rock influences into their mix on “Don’t Hurt Yourself”, they’re not a jazz band, they’re Marillion throwing some jazz influences into the mix on “Angelina”.

	Marillion reviews and interviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		This album made me a believer in Marillion with Hogarth, and if you were a skeptic like me, I highly recommend this release.
		Marillion is a band that toes the line between various genres, from top 40 to progressive rock, and it's really hard to pin down exactly where they belong.
		Once again, this album does represent a departure from anything Marillion has done in the past and it's quite amazing that the band has managed to elude stagnation and constantly keeps evolving.

		If you have listened to Marillion you really need script for a jesters tear it's their first album but i can listen to it over and over again also if you like live stuff suggest real to reel..but admittedly they are not as commercial as misplaced childhood
		Marillion are one of a few bands who really made the net work for them.
		I remember reading somewhere recently that as their wider appeal had diminished they were dropped by their label but still retained a sizeable loyal following and through the fanbase on the web managed to finance the release of the album that the record company abandoned.

	Blogcritics.org: Interview: Marillion's Pete Trewavas
		Trewavas is the bass player for the UK band Marillion, which has a long history of delighting their fans with their particular brand of music.
		Marillion had a number of options: (1) sign with another label (and they had offers on the table); (2) borrow money to do the album themselves; or (3) ask the fans whether they'd pre-order the as-yet unrecorded album thus funding the album themselves!
		When Marillion asked, the fans answered, and the band had the opportunity to make the album their way, without worrying about a record label's interference or infulence.

	Marillion & Fish
		Marillion's music shone as a beacon in the darkness of the 80s, an often grim decade where style took precedence over content, where the dominant artists were talentless poseurs more interested in hairstyles than music.
		Marillion's "Difficult Second Album" is the one often overlooked by fans.
		Marillion's 11th album, named after their website, as seems to be a trend nowadays.

	DPRP : CONCERT REVIEW ARCHIVE
		Marillion took the stage a few minutes after nine, opening with the sublime Seasons End, which was -as always- preceded by the Christmas carol O Come Emmanuel.
		The familiar Easter (Marillion plays this song during virtually every concert) closed the concert, and was the last chance for the audience to showcase their vocal talents!
		Marillion gave a good show, which is what we have come to expect from a band with twenty years worth of experience in the music business, but it wasn't particularly special like on many other occasions.

	Interview with Mark Kelly of Marillion
		I spoke with Mark Kelly, keyboardist for the band Marillion, about the release of the double CD live album Made Again, the move from EMI to Castle, and his view on the current music scene.
		Mark agrees with the view that Brave is one of the best Marillion albums recorded: "It's the hardest Marillion album there is. We set out to do something without compromises and Brave is the result." However, while Brave won critical acclaim, it didn't sell as well as EMI wanted.
		Marillion also have freedom to pursue solo releases---EMI has a lot of control over whether a band member's solo work should be released by them or not, and Castle records basically gives the artist the freedom to go to any record label.

	Ministry of Information: Review: Marillion, Manchester Academy, 1 July, 2004
		Though I'm very familiar with all of their official albums and have heard over sixty unofficial concert recordings (not bootlegs!), this was the first time I'd seen Marillion live, in person, so I was understandably excited.
		This Is The 21st Century ostensibly might have seemed an odd choice, and not entirely a crowd-pleaser, but it followed the tone of the 'Marbles' material perfectly, and is one of the few 'Anoraknophobia' tracks I particularly like, not least for the accidentally prophetic 9-11 reference (think about it).
		Rob and Liz, who have attended several Marillion concerts, didn't rate this one especially highly, but I suspect that was partly due to their preconceptions of how a Marillion concert should 'feel' and the reduced novelty of having seen some of these songs performed live before.
