I was searching online using the phrase "what era of Genesis do you prefer" when I thought of this poll. I figured this would be a rather fair matchup. One is often considered to be the first proper Genesis album and their first really good one if not their first great one and the other is considered to be their last really good one and their last stab at prog.

....And forgive us our Trespass album, as we forgive them that trespass against Genesis (Matthew 6:12-14). Smile

Genesis is not a band I have listened to much for many years, but other than The Lamb, Trespass is my favourite Genesis album. Duke never made a strong impression on me (never much liked it) even when I was much bigger on Genesis than I am now.

Narrowly giving this one to Duke. Both are 4-star albums for me. My biography will have an entire chapter about my bellybutton.

Both equally. They hit different vibes.

Trespass. After Hackett left, the quality of Genesis went down significantly. Even thought Duke is probably the last Genesis album that I consider decent enough, Trespass has the great guitar playing of Anthony Phillips.
