Negative Positive
Title: a strange mix of terrific and horrible
Review: As Genesis embraced commercial pop, they were capable of fine moments, and Invisble Touch has the best of those. The title track and Land of Coufusion have great momentum and melody. But Genesis also embraced the worst of the genre, making terribly sappy ballads like Tonight, Tonight, Tonight and the even-worse In Too Deep (the first at least had good drums toward the end). Domino is a flash of the brilliant lyric and melody writing that Tony Banks had during the earlier days of Genesis, and The Brazillian reminds one of the instrumental ending track Los Endos, but they're not enough to hide the fact that this Genesis traded musical ambition for big bucks long ago, and it's sad to see three incredible musicians stretch out so little on a record.
