Prog with sound effects/ use of studio

You are right. I'm not familiar with that one but not too long ago heard Pros and Cons.. and Radio Kaos and they both have lots of sounds on them especially the latter.

Marillion's Brave was chock full of sounds the band recorded for the album specifically and from aspects of their lives.

The album was recorded in a castle in France -- Chateau Marouatte -- adding a natural atmosphere to the sound that wouldn't be realized in studio. This work is full of sound textures: water lapping at the shoreline, police radio calls, sirens, first cries of Rothery's own child, trains, subways, printing presses, a splashing dive in an underground cave lake, traffic noises from streets, the clamour of people in shops, and even a real Uillean Pipes player... and so much more. These sounds are both obvious and subtly mixed throughout the work.

Marillion have used sampled sounds in other works since Brave and Mark Kelly masterfully conjures them up with his keyboards when they play live.
