Review title: Absolutely nothing to do with quality Genesis
Product review: In the late 70's, Genesis stagnated as an art-rock band, due to the fact that they had pretty much run out of truly creative ideas in that direction. So they slowly turned their course in a more 'pop' direction. They had some successes in that area (particularly the eponymous '83 album) but ultimately stagnated as a pop band due to, once again, running out of creative ideas.So, naturally of course, Genesis decided that the best thing to do would be to make a half-pop/half-prog album. One problem - THEY HAD RUN OUT OF GOOD IDEAS IN BOTH DEPARTMENTS. Every musical element of this album, both pop and progressive, had been previously cliched into the ground. And the lyrics and singing ... oh man, WHERE did they find Ray Wilson? He's a _horrid_ singer. And when you combine psuedo-intelligent pretentious lyrics with singing that's totally unable to make them come to life in any way, you have an unprecedented disaster.1 star is far too generous.
