Our Take

Genesis Abacab: A Quirky Journey through the Mind of British Prog-Rock Legends

If you thought Genesis couldn't get any wackier, think again. The band's eleventh studio album, Abacab, takes listeners on a wild ride through the eccentric minds of Phil Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford. From the off-kilter title track to the infectious pop hooks of "No Reply At All," this album is a delightful mishmash of genres and influences.

One minute you're bopping along to the funky rhythms of "Keep It Dark," the next you're caught off guard by the haunting beauty of "Man on the Corner." It's this unpredictability that keeps you on your toes throughout the entire album. Just when you think you've got Genesis figured out, they throw a curveball your way.

But don't let their quirkiness fool you - these guys are masters of their craft. Collins' soulful vocals soar effortlessly over Banks' intricate keyboards, while Rutherford's driving bass lines keep the whole thing grounded. It's a testament to their musical prowess that they can seamlessly blend prog-rock, pop, and even a touch of new wave into one cohesive sound.

So if you're in the mood for a musical rollercoaster ride, look no further than Genesis Abacab. It's a testament to the band's enduring legacy and their willingness to push the boundaries of what prog-rock can be. Strap in, folks - it's gonna be a wild ride.

About the artist

Genesis

PROFILE: GENESIS Genesis, the legendary English rock band that emerged in the progressive rock era of the 1970s, has solidified their status as one of the most influential and innovative acts in music history. With a discography that spans over four decades, the band is known for their intricate and complex musical compositions, featuring elaborate arrangements and thought-provoking lyrics. Led by the incomparable Peter Gabriel in their early years, Genesis quickly established themselves as pioneers of the prog-rock movement with albums like "Foxtrot" and "Selling England by the Pound." Gabriel's theatrical stage presence and distinctive vocal style set them apart from their peers, earning them a dedicated fanbase and critical acclaim. After Gabriel's departure, drummer Phil Collins took over as lead vocalist, steering the band towards a more commercial sound. Hits like "Invisible Touch" and "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" dominated the charts, showcasing Collins' soulful voice and the band's knack for crafting catchy pop hooks. Despite lineup changes and musical evolutions, Genesis has remained a powerhouse in the music industry, selling out stadiums and inspiring countless artists along the way. Their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010 cemented their legacy as one of the greatest bands of all time. Whether you're a die-hard prog-rock aficionado or a casual listener looking for some classic rock vibes, Genesis has something for everyone. So crank up the volume, sit back, and let the timeless sounds of Genesis transport you to a world of musical bliss.
