Editorial Reviews
THE ARTIST British rock band Marillion, founded in 1979, have, over the course of 19 studio albums, become one of the most commercially successful progressive rock bands of the 1980s and are still one of the most outstanding representatives of their genre. As the first of their peers, Marillion have started to embrace the potential of the internet for both their commercial approach and to interact with their audience.
THE PRODUCT Whether it's the last hour you were allowed to play outside as a child before you had to go home, a reference to the fight against time in regard to the climate crisis or the last minutes of a person's life - "An Hour Before It's Dark" certainly doesn't lack interpretations.
Recorded in Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios, Marillion remain musically true to themselves and continue swimming against the path of adjusting to norms and limitations.

With that said, my honest opinion is it is easily in my top two favorite Marillion albums, and top five overall. I currently have it ranked behind Fear as my favorite Marillion album, with Sunlight, Brave, and Sounds rounding out my top five. I think that is pretty good company!
As for the album itself, the best I can do is say if you took Fear, Happiness is the Road, maybe the song Neverland, and threw it all in a blender-you might come up with this album. But basically, it is the same style/format as Fear. The sound is a little more upbeat though. Also, what is nice about this album is there are a lot of little nuances and subtle sounds throughout the album. It's almost like you'll hear something new each time you listen to it. I think the keyboards, bass, and even the drumming have all these different cool things going on throughout this album. I think Pete plays his bass better than he ever has. And Marks keyboards especially in the song Sierre Leone are something magical and special (Sierre Leone definitely sounds like it could be on Happiness!) Just overall, this album is one of the best things they have done musically. The lyrics are important and meaningful, and the sound is classic but better than usual Marillion! The album also has a flow and an energy to it that is truly enjoyable and even on some level thoroughly fun to listen to.
In closing, I would say I originally was too intent on reading the lyrics and trying to listen to the album at the same time. That made the album sound disjointed and "uneven" to me. It wasn't until I just listened to the album as a whole-not trying to analyze it-not trying to critique it-but really just listen to it and take it in-that the magic happened for me. In the end, it moved me, spoke to me, and inspired me like few albums can. And that's what makes this one truly special. This is not just one of Marillions best albums, but one I believe will be considered an absolute classic over time.
Respecto del formato, para el precio es sencillamente espectacular ya que tenemos calidad de audio e imagen Blu Ray, y cada tema trae una presentación dinámica en pantalla, con la opción de escucharlos también en forma instrumental si así se desea. Recomiendo hacerlo. Es decir, sin la pista de la voz, lo que le da al álbum otra dimensión, como si fuese música incidental o una banda sonora de una film.
El documental grabado en Real World Studios (de propiedad de Peter Gabriel), es sencillamente hermoso además de interesante. En pocas palabras tienes un 3x1: El álbum (con y sin voz), las imágenes, el documental y finalmente un par de clip de dos temas a un precio muy conveniente.
