| 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).

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. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXcp9fYc6K4IKuxIZkenfvukL_Y8VBqzK" rel="nofollow - Duos for fave acts |

Narrowly giving this one to Duke. Both are 4-star albums for me. My biography will have an entire chapter about my bellybutton. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

Both equally. They hit different vibes. ------------- Welcome to the middle of the film. |

| 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. |

'Duke' is better in my view. |

I've just never managed to get into Genesis as much as I've tried over the decades - their go my prog credentials. ------------- 'We're going to need a bigger swear jar.' |

The band were still amateurs when they made Trespass. Only "Stagnation" and "Dusk" have really stood the test of time. Duke, although it's not perfect, is the far better album, if only for the "Duke's Travels/Duke's End" jam at the end.
