FROM GENESIS TO REVELATION

This has almost nothing to do with their later releases. These songs were composed when the band members were really young under Jonathan King wing. The album got very little attention when it was released. The music resemble a kind of Bee Gees/Beatles atmosphere. All songs have almost the same structure and the attention from the music is easily switched because almost nothing is happening. Short and in the same time boring compositions with only two songs with more than 4 minutes. One could easily say that this status quo is owed to their young and inexperienced level as musicians. The good thing is that they decided to do something different after this and abandon King's influence. The good things for Genesis are yet to come. What happened with Genesis is a good example for every band able and capable to do something on his own. Better follow your own dreams if you feel that you have something to say instead of doing mediocre things and regret later. 2 stars with indulgence for this one.
