Our Take

The debut self-titled album from Peter Gabriel, also known as "Car," is a quirky, avant-garde exploration of sound and emotion that continues to dazzle audiences nearly 40 years after its release. From the haunting opening track "Moribund the Burgermeister" to the surreal, atmospheric closer "Here Comes the Flood," Gabriel showcases his unique blend of prog-rock, art-pop, and experimental electronic music.

Track by track, Gabriel takes listeners on a wild journey through his mind, touching on themes of isolation, madness, and existential angst. His distinctive vocals soar and growl, whisper and howl, carrying the listener along with him on a rollercoaster of emotions.

Standout tracks include the hypnotic "Solsbury Hill," a whimsical ode to personal transformation, and the cacophonous "Modern Love," a frenetic cacophony of synths and drums that somehow manages to be both disorienting and exhilarating.

Overall, Peter Gabriel's debut album is a testament to his visionary talent and willingness to push the boundaries of musical expression. For fans of experimental rock and avant-garde pop, "Car" is an essential listen that continues to inspire and challenge listeners to this day. Gabba gabba hey!

About the artist

Peter Gabriel

Peter Gabriel: The Man, The Myth, The Genesis. If there ever was a truly enigmatic figure in the realm of music, it would have to be Peter Gabriel. The man who brought us classics like "Sledgehammer" and "In Your Eyes," Gabriel is not only a talented musician but a true innovator in the industry.

With a career spanning over four decades, Peter Gabriel has continually pushed the boundaries of what is considered traditional music. From his time as the frontman of Genesis to his innovative solo work, Gabriel has never shied away from experimentation. Who else could have written a song about a man experiencing an out-of-body experience in "Solsbury Hill" and still make it a commercial success? Beyond his music, Gabriel is also a passionate advocate for social justice and humanitarian causes. He co-founded the non-profit organization Witness, which uses video and online technologies to expose human rights abuses around the world. In 1986, he organized the renowned "Conspiracy of Hope" tour in support of Amnesty International, showcasing his commitment to making a difference through his platform. With a discography as diverse as his wardrobe, Peter Gabriel is a true musical chameleon who continues to surprise and delight his fans with each new release. Whether you're a hardcore Genesis fan or just discovering his music for the first time, there's no denying the impact that Peter Gabriel has had on the world of music.
