GENESIS

First of all let me get this clear, i'm not a particular fan of synthetic drums or drum machine, but i find it hard to picture what "second home by the sea" (my favourite track on the album) would sound like with acoustic drums, maybe it would sound better or worse i don't know, "mama" is suprisingly dark sounding for genesis, although they did this before with "the knife" on the 'trespass' album, overall the symphonic prog has desorted on this album, i would consider this album an fm style progressive pop rock album, still worth a listen, but may not impress all prog / early genesis fans, i prefer this album to 'abacab'. There are one or two weak tracks but i don't mean to say there rubbish not at all, give it a listen anyway, i feel the name "genesis" is stupid for the album title they should have called it "genesis - home by the sea", that would have sounded better.
