Our Take

Just when you thought things couldn't get any weirder in the prog rock world, along comes GENESIS with their latest offering, "New York By The Pound Vol. 2". This album is like a musical rollercoaster, taking listeners on a journey through intricate time signatures, mind-bending solos, and lyrics that are somehow both profound and nonsensical.

From the moment you press play, you'll be transported to a world where anything goes and musical boundaries are meant to be pushed. The opening track, "The Invisible Touch of a Drum Machine", sets the tone for the album, with its mesmerising beats and cryptic lyrics that leave you questioning the very fabric of reality.

As the album progresses, we are treated to tracks like "Dancing with the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" and "I Can't Dance, But I Try", each one more outlandish than the last. GENESIS have truly outdone themselves with this one, creating a sonic landscape that is equal parts exhilarating and bewildering.

While some may find "New York By The Pound Vol. 2" challenging to digest, the true prog rock enthusiasts will revel in its complexity and innovation. So buckle up, dear listener, and prepare to be taken on a musical journey unlike any other. GENESIS have once again proven why they are legends in the world of progressive rock.

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.
