Genesis
Phil Collins

and Genesis again

Usually in these parts, unless specified, "Genesis" = "Gabriel-Era Genesis"

 

Do you actually dislike albums like Foxtrot and Selling England by the Pound? ohmy.gif

Is it bad to say that the only Genesis I can tolerate is Abacab and after? ohmy.gif

Abacab is the best Collins era one IMO. Perfect blend of solo Collins pop with weird Genesis esque qualities of yore.

KISS. I can't stand them. Maybe there is more on the albums, better than what has been endlessly played on classic rock stations, but I've never bothered to buy any of their stuff.

 

Kid Rock is another. The guys is a thief and couldn't come up with original material, if his life depended on it. In fact, a lot of the new artists are guilty of theft. That, and they have to have cameo appearances on their records, all the time, in order to try and sell them. That is still piggybacking off of others' success. It doesn't matter though, rednecks still show up for the shows, and that's all that counts in the modern music industry.

 

Def Leopard is another. I don't have a beef with these guys, but I just never dug them.

Bands that are or were 'cool' and unanimously heralded, but did nothing for me:

Tool

Dave Matthews

Eric Clapton

 

True rock giants I could never become absorbed with:

Pink Floyd

The Beatles

Yes

Genesis

I just don't get Genesis - end of.

 

I have tried. I first listened to 'And Then There Was Three ...' (I'd like to say And Then There Was f**k All, but I don't want to offend) when it was released. Didn't like it. Then I tried 'Seconds Out' and that is just tedious beyond belief. I gave up for ages, then a mate kept going on about 'Duke' (? I think) and had a tape in his car. Sorry, but more sh*te!

 

Lately, I've taken 'Selling', 'Nursery' and 'Foxtrot' out of the library to give them another go, but it doesn't cut mustard for me.

 

It's hard for me to be objective about Genesis these days - I've thought they were sh*te for ages and nothing I've heard has (will) change my opinion.

 

To finish I will say that I quite like Gabriel's solo stuff.

I think that Aerosmith is the largest pile of mediocrity ever to be embraced the masses. I would rather listen to a a toilet flushing.

 

There are some others on the list, but nothing comes close to the animosity I feel toward Aerosmith.

Really?! ohmy.gif I understand if you don't like their post-70's albums, but some of their 70's albums like Rocks, Get Your Wings and Toys in the Attic are great! (Rocks is my favorite album of them)

I do find Genesis a little challenging, but I am getting there.

 

Now, Phil Collins had me at Tarzan Soundtrack. That albums gives me the feels...
