4 stars In the same style of their last release (Anoraknophobia), the band shows on Marbles they are still getting better and better in this new style they chose since Radiation, mixing prog music with modern britpop, with some ballads. The result is mostly brilliant (Ocean Cloud, Neverland, You're Gone, Don't Hurt Yourself, The Invisible Man), but sometimes boring (Drilling Holes, The Damage, Angelina and most of the four parts of Marbles). The pop songs are OK (Fantastic Place is the best of them).

This could be an exceptional single album, but it's really a bit too long for a double. However, some of the best songs appear only in the double edition, what makes it recommendable.
