NOPE. WRONG GENESIS

Middle Of The Road
, October 30, 2002Reviewer: Joe Parker - See all Joe Parker's reviewsI'm a pretty rabid Genesis fan, loving all eras of the group. While this is one of the albums that got me interested in Genesis (along with Abacab), it pales significantly after you delve into the catalog. There's nothing particularly *wrong* with it, and "Mama" and "Home By The Sea" are still some of my favorites, but other than those two, there's not a whole lot to keep you really interested. What used to be called Side 2 (before CDs, if there was such a time ;) ) has very little memorable going for it, and Side 1 has a lot of the hits.

Pro Reviews: Genesis
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews If Genesis still had one foot in the art rock world with Abacab, they jumped into pop with both feet on their eponymous release. Genesis used crisp, glossy production and mid-tempo arrangements designed for pop radio in the 1980s. After years of relative obscurity on this side of the Atlantic, one cannot blame the band, especially one so talented. There were many hits, the biggest of which were the slower easy listening songs such as "That's All" or "Taking It All Too Hard." While all the songs are unbelievable catchy, they often mask inane lyrics ("Illegal Alien") and the lack of musical innovation that fans had come to expect was a little disappointing. Although they had lost their edge, Genesis still had the ability to craft catchy songs. Genesis still represents the best pop radio of that era, and the album is still recommended for fans looking for 1980s nostalgia or fans of Phil Collins' solo work. - Vik Iyengar, All Music Guide |
