Raingods with Zippos is a 1999 Progressive Rock album by ex-Marillion vocalist Fish. It was surprisingly released on the Roadrunner record label, more well known for its Heavy Metal releases. Raingods with Zippos is often hailed one of Fish's greatest achievements along with his 1990 debut Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors. It is the first of three Fish albums to be produced by Elliot Ness (not including the "best of" collection Kettle of Fish from 1998 with which Ness was involved. While he was not involved with the production of this album Steven Wilson most famous for his work with Porcupine Tree played guitar on several of the tracks.
