The new Porcupine Tree album is out!
Listening to it now. Fantastic!!!
On a related note, I’ve purchased the Wilson remix of Jethro Tull A La Mode. Another incredible effort from SW.

Thanks for the heads up, I think I missed "A". Last one I listened to was "Heavy Horses".Listening to it now. Fantastic!!!

I was never into Marillion and their big hits like Kayleigh. Then Spotify suggested the solo Fish album Weltschmerz, which is excellent, start to finish. I was so not into Marillion, I did not even know Fish had left the band as long ago as 1988, replaced by Steve Hogarth. So, starting with FEAR, I gave them a go and wow! FEAR, Marbles, Happiness is the Road and the latest album, An Hour Before Its Dark are on pretty much constant rotate.

It's so funny I could write your post in the mirror.

I don't want to argue or start a debate, of course we all like what we like and that's it. But Marillion in any form should not be reduced to "big hits" like Kayleigh or anything else they appeared with on Top Of The Pops. They are much more than that. "Hits" were made to please the record company, otherwise they couldn't survive in the 80's. Listen to "Clutching At Straws (2018 Remix)" album, start to finish, not to random hits, and if you don't like it, that's allright, different taste in music.
I for one think that everything Fish (solo) put out after "Internal Exile" is very weak, tired, generic and lacks focus and cohesion.
Same with all Hogarth@Marillion albums from 2000 on. They feel like a drifting ship to me, nothing grabbed my attention.
