Genesis fans up to their tricks again!

We are talking here about tastes not about behavior or philosophy. Would you change your mind if you discovered that Milosevic was a Yes fan?

For tastes, to accept others' preferences does not mean to adopt their preferences or to change our own.

Progger wrote: My response is quite simple. Even YES or ELP at their worse is far better than Genesis at their worst! Big Generator has great tracks  like 'Shoot High....' 'Final Eyes' 'Big Generator'. Love Beach has 'Canario'...ect. So I can excuse Yes and ELP fanboys if they want to rate those albums highly but Genesis at their worst......no way! Giving FGTR *****'s is just someone taking the piss!!!!!!

I suggest you to learn to accept others' opinions, which is why this site exists. It is naive to suspect that whenever a person disagrees with your opinion he is being corrupt. It is also rather biased, from my point of view, to close your eyes when a group's *worst* album gets 5 stars and just find a single album out of a thousand more just because you disagree with someone's opinion.

I honestly rated FGTTR with 3 stars, I believe it's a pretty good album with decent songs (The best material was kept away by King).

Tony's piano is OUTSTANDING and Peter's voice IS BETTER THAN EVER, clear, pristine.

The album is naive OK I agree, but who am I to tell anybody how to rate an album?

• I won't give any Dream Theater album 5 stars, but I accept the right of the people who like their music to do so.
• Some people believe STYX is crap, buyt others rate their albums well
• Many people used to talk about Kansas as a second class AOR band, but lately I found a lot of members share my respect for them

Every person has his own taste, there's people who like King Crimson and there's people who like Britney Spears music, who are we to say one is right and the other is wrong?

BTW. PROOGER NOW THAT YOU ARE BACK AGAIN PLEASE ANSWER SOMETHING I ASKED YOU A WEEK AGO AND DON'T RUN:

As a matter of facts there are two reviewers (Both lucid) that give FGTTR 5 stars but:

• There are two reviewers that gave Love Beach by ELP 5 stars and four that rate it with 4 stars
• SIX reviewers gave Big Generator by Yes 5 stars and at least EIGHT gave 4 stars
• From 119 reviews, 20% (TWENTY TWO REVIEWERS) gave 90125 the maximum rating of 5 stars.

1. Why don't you rise your loud and anti corruption voice against ELP and Yes fanboys????????
2. If you're going to fight corruption, it's ok, but if you're only going to attack Genesis and close your eyes on other bands....YOU ARE PART OF THE CORRUPTION (Which BTW exists only in your paranoic mind)

But I'm sure you will go again.

Progger,

Given that this is a prog site and that Genesis were a seminal prog band, it is surely inevitable that many of their albums will be highly rated by our members. You are fully entitled to your opinion of course, but you must accept that you are in the minority here.

It is unreasonable to question the sincerity of other people's ratings, simply because you do not agree with them.

Whether or not Banks said what you quote is irrelevant. His opinion of the band's work while interesting, carries no more weight than anyone else's.

Easy Livin' [Great song BTW],

You know that I am not alone on this one. Quite a few posters recently have made comments on the same issues I raise!

You know as well as I and THE MAJORITY of prog fans that for Genesis to have 4 albums in any prog top ten is a joke when there are much worthy and superior albums.

I bet even Genesis members themselves would admit that they are not worthy. Tony Banks says that the only two 70's albums that he's proud of are 'Foxtrot' and 'Wind and Wuthering'! Sure I read that somewhere?

Ivan,

I think the thread is better left in place, as it lets Progger see that he is in a minority of one with his opinion.

Pleaee Trotsky, don't send it to the abuse section, just delete it.

Since Progger came here has only accused all the Administrators, Collaborators and reviewers of corruption without a single base except his dislike for Genesis and his incredible arrogance.

This is his classical style, he throws the stone or starts the fire and then dissapears he's a flamer (Close relative to trolls), he's not here to support his claims, probably he won't be here again for a couple of days.

Apparently he has never made a review or a biogaphy or anything for this forum but has the guts to criticize all of us.

THIS TWO REVIEWS ARE VALID, THERE'S NO ABUSE, LETS NOT SET THE FIRE FOR PROGGER TO COOK HIS FOOD.

PLEASE DELETE THIS SILLY THREAD.

I love Genesis, but seriosusly WTF is wrong with you?

Do you thinkn we care so much that we are gonna rate this super high just to get them in the top 100 or something.

I'm sorry, we have lives unlike you.
