We're continuing our analysis of Marillion's singles, starting with the first ten years of the Steve Hogarth era. In the context of the time they were released, were Hooks In You, Beautiful, These Chains etc. the right choices?

At last, we get around to completing our retrospective of Marillion's Sounds That Can't Be Made. And it's a bumper edition... which not only contains our take on Montreal, Invisible Ink, Lucky Man and Sky Above The Rain, but dredges up a few hefty chunks of our souls, while Sanja enjoys an ill-advised flirtation with AI research...

This ep was inspired by some damning criticism of Marillion. We discuss what it is that set them apart from their early-80s Neo-prog peers... before asking where they belong today.

We kick off this ep with talk about next year's Marillion Weekends, before delving into the Fish-era singles. Were they the best choices? Which album tracks might've worked as potential singles?

In our big end-of-year episode, we interview the legend that is Dave Meegan. He first worked with Marillion on Fugazi, then returned as producer on Brave, Afraid of Sunlight, Anoraknophobia and Marbles. We discuss all this and much more in a very open, honest and funny chat.

It's almost Christmas - and there's plenty to fill your stocking with, from a brand new Marillion Christmas cover, new Steve Hogarth vocals on Trevor Horn's new album, and an excellent new book.

We're taking a hiatus from Sounds The Can't Be Made to talk about the final night of Marillion's Tour Before Christmas. We trekked out in the rain to the Camden Roundhouse where... well, suffice to say it wasn't the night we'd hoped for.

Part three of our Sounds That Can't Be Made retrospective deals with the title track, Pour my Love, and Power. Also, we discuss which hypothetical sounds you wouldn't be able to make, and announce our charity single in support of Marillion's Pete Trewavas.  Support us here for early access and exclusive eps: https://www.patreon.com/mrbiffo Send us an email: byampod@gmail.com Follow BYAMPOD on Twitter and Facebook!

There's no way we can talk about Marillion's Sounds That Can't Be Made without discussing the epic track Gaza... and there's no way of discussing Gaza without discussing certain events that are happening right now in the Middle East. While we did our best to avoid controversy, and steer away from touchy subjects, you should know us better by now...

We've finally reached Sounds That Can't Be Made in our chronological journey through Marillion's albums. This one's a milestone for us, as it's Sanja's 'first' Marillion album. Before we properly get into things we've a lot to cover - gigs with Deep Purple, side projects, and *that* notorious argument...

We're back, BYAMtches! Again. And this time we're coming out swinging. We review our night seeing h Natural at The Crooked Billet, plus we take a look back at some of the mainstream newspaper reviews from 1989... How did the press react to the debut of the new boy?  And how did so many of them get it SO wrong...?!

The final part of our 13th Star trilogy of episodes finds us drawing a line under Fish's solo career, as we discuss what happens when the line becomes blurred between critic and artist, and artist and fan. It's not the review we'd planned, or wanted, to make, and in this episode we explain - in real-time - why that is.  Support us here for early access and exclusive eps: https://www.patreon.com/mrbiffo Send us an email: byampod@gmail.com Follow BYAMPOD on Twitter and Facebook!

Once again, this isn't the episode we expected to make this week, but after receiving an email from Fish, it's also one we couldn't avoid. We also dig into what it was like to be at the 2007 Aylesbury reunion, and why it might not have been a good idea...

What started out intending to be an episode about Fish's one-off reunion with Marillion in 2007 turned into something a bit darker and more intense. We dig into the story behind the reunion and the inspiration for his 13th Star album. Unfortunately, there are certain subjects that simply can't be avoided...  Support us here for early access and exclusive eps: https://www.patreon.com/mrbiffo Send us an email: byampod@gmail.com Follow BYAMPOD on Twitter and Facebook!

At last! After a lengthy summer hiatus we're back! To mark our return, we're going right back to the beginning, by taking a look at the Early Stages live boxset, and discussing Fish's final show with Marillion. Plus! We play a fun game that you can join in with - can you guess the song from Fish's rambling introductions??

It's a different sort of BYAMPOD this week, as we risk making the biggest error of our podcasting career, by discussing the current accusations aimed at Roger Waters... and how his approach to the Israel-Palestine issue differs to when Marillion took it on with Gaza.
