This is a music thread. On STW. Everyone HAS to have a favourite which is suitably obscure.

This is a music thread so I have to get involved. But I have no idea.
Er, Jimmy Edgar (that was this year)
A Human, that was good.
!!! did some brill albums and I can't say which was best
And that LCD Soundsystem lot
and er, Atmosphere, TV On the Radio (already been mentioned), something RichPenny said. The Radiohead remix album was triffic.
Amy frickin Whingebag? Are you having a laff? Just cos shes dead? Dirivite turd.
So, never post on a music thread when you've been out for you brother's brithday, it can only end badly.
Glitch Mob, Suuns, Queen (joke), Trentemoller. Alex Smoke.
Them and some others.

I have impeccable taste in music. However, I haven't heard anything by Marillion since Fish left, so I can't form any opinion on what they do now.
I think you'll have to do better than one album by a band whose heyday was twenty-odd years ago. 🙂

I managed a record shop in 2002 when Alice officially was released, if I remember correctly most of the album was heavily bootlegged after original recordings had been stolen/leaked in the mid 1990s. It didn't sell as well on official release as we hoped for that reason. Cracking album though.
