Product description

The collection opens with a new version of the album that was remixed by Michael Hunter. It also includes the original mix by the album's producer Dave Meegan, a live recording of Marillion performing at the Rotterdam Ahoy arena on September 29, 1995 during the group's tour supporting 'Afraid of Sunlight', and a Blu-ray which features the album's original 1995 mix along with several new mixes (48/24 LPCM stereo remix; 48/24 DTS 5.1 mix; 48/24 LPCM 5.1 mix). Video content includes interviews with the band discussing the album, a new documentary about 'Afraid of Sunlight', and a promo film for 'Beautiful.' The Blu-ray disc also collects the nine bonus recordings from the remastered edition of the album that was released in 1999, plus 17 previously unreleased songs.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The eighth and final deluxe box set from Marillion.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 June 2024

    This, the eighth and final deluxe box set from Marillion, is a masterpiece. Remastered and remixed with both CD's and Blu Ray (not to mention a fabulous book) it completes the set of studio albums released in the band's time with EMI. Not one for the occasional listener - but one for the diehard fan - it is an epic undertaking in common with the other albums and on a par with the Jethro Tull albums which are being given the same treatment. If you have the audio system compatible there is even a 5.1 Dolby version on the Blu Ray. Also on the Blu Ray is a live concert along with a documentary on the making of the album. Superb.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 November 2019

    These deluxe edition box sets from Marillion are incredible value for money and Afraid of Sunlight is no exception. Here's a fantastic remix of the original album, a 5.1 mix, bonus tracks, a full length documentary and two additional discs of live material all enclosed in a beautiful hardback book with stunning artwork - all for under £25. Wonderful!

    One is bound to make comparisions with the recent Abbey Road 50th anniversary edition - a fantastic release in itself but with arguably less content and costing more than three times as much!

    This album itself is possibly my favourite from the H era along with Brave, and Michael Hunter has done a bang on job with the remix. The 5.1 version is worth the cost alone.

    Buy this one now and then add Childhood, Brave and Straws if you can still find them.

    A fantastic edition. This was an album that I original struggled with on it initial release. As a Marillion fan I started to collect these edition and as with the others so far I, m not disappointed. The new mix really stands out and the live disc are amazing. The booklet is great and also the dvd interview with the band explaining the making off the album is great to watch. Now looking forward the Script for a jesters tale which is for 2020. Defo 5 out of 5.

    This really is excellent & the film of the group discussing the recording & events before & during the recording is very illuminating. I’m a “Johnny come lately” to the band but they are great - particularly in the H era. I’ll be back for more...

    Great album and package from one of Britain’s best bands. Marillion have been a go to in recent years for people starved of quality rock like Pink Floyd etc. These and the Jethro Tull packages offer great value and show you can release a deluxe edition which offers value to fans. Great presentation. Wonderful rock band.

    Great box set but if your buying for the 5.1 mix then you might be a little disappointed as it sound like a
    Fake mix to me and far to compressed otherwise cd mix is great and the live stuff is good too

    This has always been one of my favorite Marillion albums but I found the sound a bit muddy on the original mix. This remix, especially the 5.1, solves all of the problems I had with the original version. Also, the video of the band talking about the writing and recording of the album is, alone, worth the price of the set. Their personalities and creative ideas come through in a way that makes me appreciate the music even more. I'm really happy with this set.

    Quel formidable initiative que celle de rééditer de cette manière là quelques albums (les grands classiques pour la plus part) du catalogue de MARILLION. Qu’ils soient issus des années Fish ou de celles d’Hogarth.

    Initiée et rééditée sans le moindre soucis de chronologie, voici qu’après celles de MISPLACED CHILDHOOD, Puis celle de BRAVE, puis celle de CLUTCHING AT STRAWS, c’est autour de AFRAID OF SUNLIGHT d’être remis à l’honneur. Certains d’entre-vous ne manqueront pas de s’en étonner, tant ce disque n’aura jamais bénéficié de l’aura et de la reconnaissance des œuvres précitées.
    Toujours est-il que cet album, paru en 1995 (juste après le gros pavé conceptuel BRAVE), reste un disque que j’ai toujours trouvé autrement plus digeste que certaines autres œuvres du groupe. Les plus récentes en particulier.
    Ceci étant dit, et contrairement à ses frères aînés, le visuel originel de l’album n’a pas été conservé pour cette édition. En réalité, cette illustration était initialement celle que l’on trouvait au dos de l’édition originale. La voici désormais mise à l’honneur, ce qui n’est certainement pas pour me déplaire. Sachant que c’est belle et bien celle du Christ du Corcovado de Rio qui avait été envisagée par Steve Hogarth au départ, contre l’avis des 4 autres musiciens.

    Me concernant, si je n’ai pas cédé à l’édition de BRAVE, je trouve celle de AFRAID OF SUNLIGHT autrement plus riche et variée que cette dernière. De part son contenu justement.
    Rien qu’au travers de son double Live, il y a de quoi se réjouir face à une telle set list. 2 albums de l’ère Fish étant particulièrement bien représenté, sachant que le concert se terminait là aussi par un autre de ces titres emblématiques des débuts du groupe, le mythique et ô combien enlevé «Garden Party». Voilà une formidable initiative qui ne se représenterait plus par la suite. Le groupe faisant ensuite le choix délibéré de s’écarter durablement de ses premières années de créations. Celles de l’ère Fish donc.

    Au registre d’autres réjouissances, une partie bonus extrêmement copieuse et fort goûteuse à l’écoute de toutes ces démos et autres versions plus ou moins inédites, le tout servi par un rendu sonore d’excellente qualité. Certaines prises batteries sonnant même mieux que dans leur version définitive («Canibal Surf Babe» et «Out Of This World» pour ne pas les citer). Voilà quelque chose qu’il me paraît important de vous faire remarquer, car en comparaison, ceux figurant sur CLUTCHING AT STRAWS relevaient plus de la curiosité et de chutes mal dégrossies que d’autre chose.

    Si l’édition ici proposé offre toujours, comme sur les autres éditions, son lot de remix à gogo (on se demande d’ailleurs pourquoi en mettre autant ? Du LPCM en Stéréo ou en 5.1, du DTS HD Master, du re-mix 2019 signé Michael Hunter, celui original de Dave Meegan datant de 1995 - N'en jetez plus !), ce superbe coffret ultra complet ne bénéficie pas pour autant du même foisonnement de photos rares et inédites comme sur celle de MISPLACED ou CLUTCHING. Pas de photos Live, pas d’affiches ou de documents de travail par exemple.
    D’autre part, et face à cette dernière observation, si l'aspect général de ce livre/disques reste fort heureusement très soigné, certains se demanderont alors pourquoi les illustrations du livret initial (le boxeur, la Cadillac, Elvis) n’auront pas été conservées pour illustrer d’avantage un tel packaging ? Voilà qui aurait pu contribuer a augmenter la beauté du livret intérieur. Étonnant pour ne pas dire incompréhensibleconstat en la matière. Qui plus est pour un tel format justement.

    Du côté du Live ici proposé, là en revanche on touche carrément au SUBLIME. Entre une interprétation sans failles et une performance vocale absolument exemplaire de Steve Hogart, une set list étourdissante incluant nombre de titres de l'ère Fish et un son au petits oignons et voilà de quoi vous régaler du début à la fin.

    Nota: Si le non sous-titrage du documentaire du Blue Ray (45mns), qui avait coûté une étoile à l’édition de MISPLACED CHILDHOOD est toujours à déplorer ici, l’ensemble est suffisamment copieux et soigné pour ne pas sanctionner d’avantage un pareil objet. Surtout à ce prix là (30 euros env).
    Attention! Le prix initial de chaque édition flambe ensuite très vite, au regard de celle de MISPLACED CHILDHOOD par exemple qui flirt désormais ici à quelques 200 euros. Gloups!
