WIND & WUTHERING

First album I've heard from this great and classic band. Genesis amazeses me, and I've only heard two albums from them, the other not in the better. Wind and Wuthering is a remarkable album with plenty of good songs to listen to. The best song happens to be Blood on the Rooftops. Phil Collins is a great singer and really does good with what he sings. Hearing his stuff previously from after his leaving the band I couldn't agree with him. But his time with Genesis is prime. Wind and Wuthering is a very complex album and a pinnacle in the Symphonic Prog section. I'm not big into the softer stuff, being a metal head myself, but you can't put these geniouses aside at all! I've been reading and hearing that Genesis is a crucial band of influence next to Yes, Rush, King Crimson, and Pink Floyd. I'm here to testify that this is none the less true! Now, why is this album good? Simple, it has brilliant talent both vocally, emotionally, and musically. It's soft and progresses well and is very entertaining too! Almost every song is enjoyable and something to add to a musical collection. 4/5 stars for Genesis, good job you guys. This stuff is the true stuff from back in the 70s and it's not going to get old anytime soon. Atleast within the next millenium or so.
