Our Take

MARILLION have been around the block a few times, but they still manage to surprise and delight with their latest offering, "An Hour Before Its Dark." This album is a swirling kaleidoscope of sound, blending prog rock with pop sensibilities in a way that only this British band can pull off.

Steve Hogarth's vocals are as emotive as ever, soaring high above the intricate guitar work and lush keyboard textures. The band's ability to craft epic, multi-layered compositions is on full display here, with each track taking the listener on a journey through sonic landscapes both familiar and strange.

Standout tracks include the propulsive opener "Be Hard on Yourself," the hauntingly beautiful "The Crow and the Nightingale," and the epic title track, which clocks in at over 15 minutes but never feels indulgent or bloated.

While some may scoff at the band's vintage sound and penchant for long songs, those who give "An Hour Before Its Dark" a chance will be rewarded with a rich and rewarding listening experience. So grab your headphones, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let MARILLION transport you to a world where the music is as timeless as it is innovative. Trust us, you won't regret it.
