Sounds That Can not Be Made - LIVE

A Better Way of Life - is the motto on the Marillion-homepage And in fact, you can gain some positive impressions back in this publication. Recorded at the Marillion Weekend 2013 one thing is already clear: the patrons are only reported Marillion fans. For the mood, which is transported with the two pieces of silver, which is of very great advantage. Audiences love just happens to his hosts.

Presented this evening hautsächlich the songs from the last album "Sounds That cant be made". The eight songs from that album will be completely presented. In between, some goodies from 30 years as a band to be set. The opener "Gaza" is quite brilliantly therefore. The first verses come similarly brutal in the live version over how already on the studio CD. With its almost 19 min (incl. Applause) know the piece on a thoroughly progressive rock suitable length. But the Marillion 2013 are attributable to this genre in my opinion, only conditionally. And "Gaza" is me as the protagonist, to torn from the text in itself to be a true classic. 18 min. Term result not automatically "Ocean Cloud" (or, for the nostalgic among the listeners a "Grendel").

On CD1 to pieces switch from Sounds album with older works from. It is significant that even the older works with the public are the real winner. The beginning of Waiting to Happen carries the audience in much of its own. This Strange Engine and Neverland are fully celebrated.

The second Silberling falls against the first unfortunately somewhat. For this he is then to Sounds heavy. But Montréal, Power and The Sky above the Rain know yet pleasing, but stay close to the studio versions. Only two more titles remain from other albums: King of Sunset Town, which can be found on any of the numerous live RECENT RELEASES (except the second Bootleg Box) and Garden Party as a conclusion. Especially the latter, so it is also celebrated by the audience, leaves a bad aftertaste because h and Fish-material holding together go only conditionally and under the h-material certainly would have given pieces that were just able to complete well the concert.

Total excites me the album (still) not so much like the previous live CDs Marillion. Maybe it was for a complete recording of sounds just a bit too early. On the mood, it is certainly not that was outstanding and was impressive already recognized in the double-CD live Brave 2013 which was recorded the day before this record here at the same location (available in the online shop of Marillion). With the presentation of "Brave" sounds can not keep up, unfortunately.

Nevertheless, I give four points, which, at least one is due to the fact that it is Marillion and live recordings of Marillion actually are always worth listening to. For all, which sounds cant be made has already been made, a great listening pleasure on over 130 min.
