Our Take

GENESIS' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is a bizarre, ambitious double album that takes listeners on a wild journey through the surreal and make-believe world of Rael, a rebellious New York City youth.

With its intricate storytelling and progressive rock soundscapes, this album is nothing short of a sonic odyssey. Peter Gabriel's vocals are haunting and ethereal, drawing listeners in with his mesmerizing delivery. The band's musicianship is on full display, with intricate guitar riffs, complex drum patterns, and swirling keyboards creating a mesmerizing tapestry of sound.

Tracks like "In the Cage" and "The Carpet Crawlers" showcase the band's knack for blending complex musical arrangements with compelling lyrics, while "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway" serves as the album's epic centerpiece, with its sprawling instrumentation and philosophical lyrics.

Despite its length and occasionally indulgent tendencies, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is a must-listen for fans of progressive rock. While it may not be the most accessible album in GENESIS' discography, its sheer ambition and creativity make it a standout in the world of classic rock.

So grab your headphones, settle in, and prepare to embark on a musical journey unlike any other. GENESIS' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is a truly unique listening experience that is sure to leave a lasting impression on all who dare to take the plunge.

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.
