Review:
"Fish drives Marillion to classic status".
I remember buying this when it was first released in 1985 and rushing home to listen to it. It is one of few albums where upon the very first listen everything sounded fantastic, the whole album from start to finish was so well put together and I must have listened to it 20 times over the next few months.
What stands out to me are the very passionate and emotional lyrics and singing from Marillion's lead singer Fish. From the opening "Pseudo" through to the closing "White Feather" he never misses a note. As a couple of points of reference I feel his vocal style is similar in delivery to Peter Gabriel and Elbow's Guy Garvey in places (Fish's emotion and control on the high notes is the big difference for me). The story feels like a very personal one and is conveyed with such power that I could only feel "wow, this is someone putting it all on the line and sharing their deepest emotions with the listener".
I feel that nothing beats a band or artist who is truly writing, singing and playing from the heart, and believe in what they are doing - rather than for someone else or some other agenda. I often think of this album as a shining example of that. I believe that this is what makes this album (and indeed the Bands next - "Clutching at Straws" - 1987) a true classic.
The band sound incredibly tight and everyone gives a great performance - Fish, Steve Rothery - Guitar, Mark Kelly - Keyboards, Ian Mosley - Drums and Pete Trewavas - Bass (who would also join up with Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), Neal Morse (Spock's Beard) and Roine Stolt (Flower Kings) to form a superb "sideline" band called "Transatlantic" in 2001). There are so many highpoints on this album (eg "Kayleigh", "Lavender" (the transition between these two songs is stunningly beautiful), and "Heart of Lothian". The best thing though is the whole albums flow (eg "Blind Curve" / "Childhoods End / "White Feather"), this "closing section" of the album at a combined 16 minutes in length is as emotional as anything I have heard.
In summary a real classic, a beautifully written, sung and played story from beginning to end that has power, passion, emotion and sublime playing in abundance. With Fish's lyrics / emotion / honesty / from the heart approach (and it appears leadership and direction) combined with the bands incredible sense of musical accompaniment Marillion have produced a classic that to this day has new listeners saying... "Wow, who is that, it's brilliant!" That is the ultimate compliment for any music.
