And the other reason I voted for Simarillion is that Voivod sound horrible ...to my delicate ears...

I also like The Outer Limits a lot. Darryl posted a video of the 17-minute epic "Jack Luminous", which of course is the album's centrepiece, but their cover of "The Nile Song" is also fantastic.

Sorry E, but can't stand Hogarth's era, to me Hogarth to Marillion is what Collins was to Genesis.


Haha, I expected this comment from Iván.
I agree BTW about the Marillion/Hogarth statement (not the Collins/Genesis).
Post-Fish Marillion is a riddle to me, I find it very boring, except for maybe some stuff on the early Hogarth albums.
My vote for Marillion is because I think the early Marillion/Fish albums are very good.

actually Steve.. that is why I haven't voted yet.  I really do not care a single bit for Marillion but really don't know Voivod.  Raff tells me we have some of their stuff, I might take a listen and if I like it. I vote for them, if not.  I'll vote for Marillion for the import/legacy. Not that it really matters.. I'm sure Marillion will walk the dog in this one.

If only you had a video of Paul Sears' Marillion rant!

Obviously E-Dub hasn't been here yet. He'll rally the Marillion fanboys.
