Marillion & Michel Petrucciani Out Now!

Dear master tape friends,

today we have another very special release for you from both the rock music and jazz domain. We hope you’ll find one or even both of those albums enjoyable.

Marillion - F E A R

On 7 April 2016, the band revealed the cover art and announced the album title as Fuck Everyone and Run (F E A R).

Singer Steve Hogarth commented on the title, saying, 

”This title is adopted not in anger or with any intention to shock. It is adopted and sung (in the song "New Kings”) tenderly, in sadness and resignation inspired by an England, and a world, which increasingly functions on an “Every man for himself” philosophy. I won’t bore you with examples, they’re all over the newspapers every day. There’s a sense of foreboding that permeates much of this record. I have a feeling that we’re approaching some kind of sea-change in the world – an irreversible political, financial, humanitarian and environmental storm. I hope that I’m wrong. I hope that my FEAR of what “seems” to be approaching is just that, and not FEAR of what “is” actually about to happen.
