INVISIBLE TOUCH

"Invisible Touch" is the album that got me interested in Genesis. I found it sitting at the bottom of a budget bin in a record store years ago and just had to get it. This was afterall the Genesis that I had grown up listening to, and it was a shame to see it sitting in a budget bin. I know most people hate this album, but I reserve my hatred for the album that came after this one. Besides the fact that this album sold a ton, and solidified Genesis as one of the most popular bands in the world, I don't see where all the dart throwing comes from. I know that this album sounds like they have songs lined up based on a formula they developed over the years, but that doesn't mean the songs aren't good. They just aren't very innovative, and it seems like on points in the album like Genesis are just mailing it in. However, "Domino" is a great epic song, and I swear that "The Brazillian" is one of the best closing songs on an album, ever. The 1980s had settled in and so had Genesis.
