Interesting... pretty sure this is the first time a Marillion studio album in being made available as a standalone Blu-ray release.

The new album hit #2 in the UK.

Incredible how they were written off by the UK press in the 90s (admittedly, their late 90s albums weren’t very good) and look at the comeback over the last 20 years.

This is an album that takes time to absorb, but it’s quite good.

I agree with Pete that this is an album that takes time to absorb but it's worth the effort. I've been underwhelmed by their albums since the incredible Marbles in 2004, so this one is a nice return to form in my opinion. I bought the blu-ray and listened in surround and hi-res stereo, both of which are really enjoyable. I appreciated some of the music even more once I watched the 80+ minute making-of documentary.
