TRESPASS

To me this album seems more mature and developed than "Nursery Cryme" but that could possibly be because the song formulas were simpler and easier to handle on this album. It is a very solid early prog album that has some of Genesis' best 12 string folk songs ever. The lyrics are not as strong as later efforts but are still handle-able, and the Knife is the defining track, suggesting the good things to come. This album rocks, is beautiful, and has an all around good sound. What more could you ask of a band? 4 stars, not Genesis' best but definitely every Genesis fan should have this.
