Hi All. My prog rock knowledge has been pretty much limited to Genesis, whome I love, particularly from Collins early singer albums. I've just discovered Marillion beyond the Fish era, and I'm totally blown away. There's sooo much to try to find on this sight, it's amazing, but overwhelming. So any other groups you experienced listrners would recommend, in a similar vein to Hogarth Marillion. I'm not keen on anything too heavy. Thanks 👍

I'm no expert on this style of music, but I recall Collage being called comparable to Marillion and the 90s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4huhmXEPujs" rel="nofollow - Moonshine being compared to Hogarth era.

Not sure about like Hogarth Era Marillion, but like Gabriel Era Genesis I would say Big Big Train, English Electric (Full Power version).

Gazpacho was actually the name of a Marillion song but not sure what album it's from. Maybe also The Pineapple Thief.

Hi and welcome. In regards to Marillion (that you're asking for similar stuff), others will have more expertise than me. But I couldn't help noticing:

-which once was a vibrant scene for a certain kind on progressive rock that I love, but that you may not enjoy so much. At least not yet. Except maybe for Camel. I'll reccomend their 1976-album Moonmadness as a place to start. Warm, melancholic and gentle Symphonic Prog. And beautiful.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I rather liked the Pineapple athiefs Tightly Unwound, and Magnolia. I am now exploring Big Big Train, Gazpacho and Camel. I was aware of the Canterbury scene, but not explored it. I do have another prog related like - Steve Wilsons less heavy stuff, and blackfield.

I don't mind some rocky moments, but metal crossover is definitely not my bag. I'm a popster at heart

Steve Hogarth did a very nice ambient album with Richard Barbieri of Porcupine Tree called Not The Weapon but The Hand. That is well worth checking out.
Another collaboration that would be right up your street is Storm Corrosion (Michael Akerfeldt and Steven Wilson). Again this is high on atmosphere and not 'heavy'.

IQ easy answer, other Wi, maybe (new) Camel if you want to get into 'oldschool' prog with the most comparable sound. Many small indies after 00's

Why not Marillion with Fish? That's about as close as you'll get, with 4/5's of the same band members.

Season's End saw a notable change of approach towards 'poppier' songs with both Kelly and Rothery dampening down their virtuoso leanings. Fish era Marillion presented 4 very different albums, virtually a re-invention from album to album. It seems a very different band somehow. IMO

possibly because he enjoys the Hogarth era more?

Yes, I do prefer the Hogarth era, though I'm a fan of misplaced childhood, buying it when it came out, aged 14. Can't get into clutching at straws, gave it a listen recently, might have to give it some more listens. Really enjoying Gazpacho and Phideaux, IQ also. Many thanks 😊
