[QUOTE="the_reverend:116095"]UK ROCK LEGENDS MARILLION RELEASE NEW CD, TOUR THE US New York City: Twenty-one years after the release of their first album Script For A Jester’s Tear, MARILLION prepare release of their thirteenth studio album, Marbles. Set for US release on October 5, 2004, Marbles is packed full of atmospheric and stirring songs. Intense, deep-seated and musically rewarding, the CD had a pan-European release May 3 via their own label Intact Records, with international distribution and licensing handled by Absolute worldwide. The album's single, ‘You’re Gone,’ charted at position #7 in the UK (the week ’s second highest entry) and at position #8 in Holland, earning the band a slot on Top Of The Pops. The airplay on the single ‘You’re Gone’ has been phenomenal from all areas of the press throughout Europe. MARILLION have a unique relationship with their fans. In 1997 the fans learnt via an email newsletter that, due to lack of record company support, the band could not afford to fund a US tour. One of the fans instigated a whip-round and raised $60,000 enabling the tour to take place. The release of the album Marillion.com in 1999 flagged their newly launched web-site (and record label) and this online source of information became an open conduit between band and fans. At that point the band decided to adopt a completely new approach to the way their albums were funded and their twelfth album Anoraknophobia hit the headlines in 2001 when more than 12,000 fans pre-ordered and paid for, the record twelve months before it was released. A similar campaign has been launched to fund Marbles with 13,000 fans ordering the record in advance, but this time all the money raised is going into a campaign fund to promote the album. MARILLION have sold more than fourteen million records worldwide. Their thirteen studio albums (four with Fish as lead singer '82-88; 9 with Steve Hogarth) have hit worldwide charts continuously: eight UK Top 10 albums, nineteen UK Top 40 singles. They have performed over 1100 shows to well over 2 million people and are currently working on a 43-date worldwide tour that commenced May 2004 and will find the band playing to audiences in England, Ireland, Germany, France, Holland, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Spain, Italy, Poland, Switzerland, Mexico, and ending with dates in the US and Canada. Marbles will be released via Dead Ringer Records. Distribution throughout the United States is handled exclusively by Caroline Distribution; PHD Canada for the northern territories and various distributors throughout Mexico. [/QUOTE]
