FOXTROT

"Foxtrot" is my favorite album by Genesis and probably my favorite album of all time although I also like in an equal but different way: "Minstel in the Gallery", "Dark Side of the Moon", and "Mirage".

From the first moment to the last I'm glued to it "watcher of the sky" to "horizons" is amazing, the variaty and power of the first side is alone a good reason to own the album but "supper's ready" is an entirely different reason, it would be worth buying twice if each side were sold separately (maybe I'm being dramatic and maybe I'm not).

The album is a semi-concept album of the events leading to the end of time and eventually going home, and the music is dramaticly fitting of such an epic concept.

The recordings seem a bit raw but some mite like that(I do). Technical problems are not artistic problems but even with this rawness it gives an almost reallity to the idea that the end could be here now or at any moment and interpretted in any way.

All and all a must have album for any progger unless you can't stand Genesis. Perfect 5.0.
