Hogarth is quite uninspiring and boring in my world whereas Fish had a diverse pallette of true entertainment value. I guess if you are sedated and prefer santitized blandness the Hogarth era might work for you but Fish was instrumental for creating a whole new movement in progressive rock in the 80s and the first four Marillion albums with him are pretty much all masterpieces. Never could understand why Fugazi is less rated than the rest since that one is my favorite!

^ sorry, i honestly have not found any music more boring to my ears than Hogarth era Marillion and i pretty much love everything from cheesy pop to extreme metal. There's just something missing

Neither.. actually I would prefer solo Hogarth (his amazing "Ice Cream Genius") and solo Fish ("13th Star" or "Sunsets on Empire") over any Marillion album. Marillion as a band never worked for me, in every album I find a lot of cliche and fillers, predictable, stiff, mediocre themes. Always found it was lucky for Trewavas that he could join bands such as Transatlantic and Kino to express his capabilities and liveliness.
