A different sound normally associated with previous genesis works but still a very enjoyable album
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
Dismissed far too quickly by many Genesis fans back in the day including me. However, there are some great tracks on the album and it is well worth a listen.

This album written mainly by Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford features some of the best "touring" rock music in the sixties style.The title track is a mean almost funereal piece of music,though at nearly six minutes,a bit too long for the cd ,but great for Wembley, as is Alien".Shipwrecked and Congo- my favourite tracks-are in the background of my PC (along with anything by Collins) I tend too skip "Not about us" and "dividing line",One man's fool at eight minutes is about as moody as it gets-- not a sing-along== but great listening,full volume is better, All in all this Album is a great follow up to "Turn it On" and Genesis to Revelation
This album is really growing on me. I bought it because I'd seen a documentary about the band and their take had been that this goes back to the 'Then There Were Three . . ' days, which I agree with. Vocally Ray Wilson is more like Peter Gabriel without the rawness. It has a good blend of modern music with an element of the prog rock that we all know and love from their early days. Give it a go and give it a little time, Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford are still incredibly talented musicians. It's a pity they called it quits after this.
