Weirdly as much as I'm a fan of IQ , Dark Matter is one of theirs that I struggle to warm to. Frequency and The Seventh House are more my cup of tea. I like Neo Prog to be powerful. As for Pallas I would take Dreams Of Men and Marillion almost a dozen albums of theirs over the poll selection.

They're all good, except Dark Matter which is brilliant.

Although I'm Marillion devoted fan I have to vote for IQ Dark Matter this time. It's brilliant album!

IQ Dark Matter for me as well, although I do like some of Afraid of Sunlight. I'm just not much of a fan of Hogarth-era Marillion anyway.

With these choices, it's kind of hard to not vote for Dark Matter.

I am voting for the most overtly intelligent one, rather than the mythical one or the fantasy fiction one.  Geek

Afraid of Sunlight is the reason why I actually quit with Marillion. One of the worst albums I've ever purchased. Dark Matter is an excellent album instead.

Don't like what I've heard of post Fish Marillion, and I've not heard AOS so won't vote.

The IQ album is pretty good, not their best. I prefer Ever and Seventh House. The Sentinal has some good moments and the gatefold sleeve is nice, but much of the music it is just cheese soaked nonsense. Ewan Lowson had a good voice though. Preferred it to Alan Reeds tbh.

I've not heard the Marillion one, but I love DarK Matter and The Sentinel is just Jim Garten's favourite album.

IQ Dark Matter

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.

The material on The Sentinel is strong but the production is so poor I find it almost unlistenable.

Sacred Sound is an incredible track but the rest of Dark Matter I find fairly average by IQ's standards.

So by default it's AOS which is one of Marillion's best albums.

no no no Marillion are a top band but for me its IQ if there where two vote it would Pallas.........

Sacred Sound, You Never Will and Harvest of Souls are all quite amazing; Red Dust Shadow and Born Brilliant are good but not quite in the same class.

Happy to push up the vote for AOS with my vote, but gee, Dark Matter is a good album.
