  Genesis (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Genesis is on indefinite hiatus as of 1998.
Genesis recorded its first album, 1969's From Genesis to Revelation, after striking a deal with Jonathan King, a songwriter and producer who had a hit single at the time called "Everyone's Gone to the Moon".
Genesis' course into the 1980s as a pop singles outfit was assured — though some fans of their Gabriel-era music felt alienated.

 From Genesis To Revelation
Genesis began its existence as a band while its members were still British schoolboys, and recorded its first album during summer vacation from school, in 1968.
From Genesis To Revelation, released by British Decca in 1969, was not a good indication of where the band would go during the Seventies, and was a general disappointment to all concerned.

 Genesis: Album Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
Genesis sound like teenagers on From Genesis To Revelation, slightly awkward and yet to establish their own distinct identity, but it's quite astounding to think that they were only in their early twenties when they recorded masterpieces like Foxtrot and The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.
King plasters the album with orchestration, which dominates the group's basic instrumentation (acoustic guitars, group egotist Tony Banks manages to limit his contribution to one piano track per song, while the drummer is largely limited to insipid percussion) although it's difficult to imagine how interesting this album would be without it.
While Genesis are justifiably criticised for their lack of instrumental skills in comparison to their progressive rock contemporaries, their albums through the early 1970s are among the finest committed to vinyl; Gabriel's lyrical themes are consistently intriguing, often giving the albums a tinge of spirituality, while the group are consistently tasteful and melodic.

 Superfluous Music Reviews : Genesis album reviews by Jacob   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
Most people don’t seem to drool all over this album like they do for Jethro Tull albums, but still, there’s no reason to, this album was produced by a bunch of unexperienced, very talented youngsters with a love for psychedelic pop music.
I’v come up with the conclusion (with help from my friend) that you shouldn’t think so low of this album because their peak is so much better, their peak material material is SOOO much different form this.
Genesis use to be one of those bands I never understood.

 Genesis
Genesis are essentially a power band: they very rarely get on by soft melodies alone, it's the contrast between soft and hard (I mean, upbeat and majestic) that makes their songs work.
But the album is also cluttered with pointless, meaningless and deadly boring instrumentals ('Wot Gorilla?'; 'Unquiet Slumbers') which make any instrumental passage on a 1970-74 Genesis album sound inspired and brilliant in comparison.
Indeed, the second part of the album is practically all forgettable (and that's more than half an hour of music), until you arrive at the final 'Fading Lights' to immerse yourself into ten minutes of bad progressive rock which you still view as an escape from the realms of bullshit pop entertainment for mass consumption.

The album is very definitely a 1960s album, and you may have extra tracks depending on which version of the original album you have.
The album has religious ideas, but only in that one song is called "The Beginning" and another is called "The Conqueror".
If your album does have these versions find yourself a copy of a fl album (remastered in 1995 I think) There is a demo of "Image Blown Out" which is a very surreal song.

 GENESIS Trespass reviews and MP3   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
When the album is over, the listener is left transformed by the journey and emotionally exhausted, which is really what great prog rock, and great art, is all about.
Genesis, a multitalented band that would go on to change forms many times before eventually mutating into pop and fizzling out, shows their immense progressive capability on this, their second album.
Genesis' music is more based on structural symphonicaton of the songs than on individual solo's, and on Trespass they manage to make the songs really cohesive and with sense of purpose.

 Genesis Reviews
Collins makes his Genesis lead vocal debut on the acoustic "More Fool Me." The complex structures and poetic risks taken here may throw fans of later Genesis hits such as the cute "Abacab," but it's well worth coming along for the ride.
Containing extended instrumental sections showcasing the extraordinary talents of Tony Banks, Steve Hackett, and Phil Collins, as well as the expressive vocals and often disturbing lyrics of Peter Gabriel, this is the album that located Genesis truly on the map.
And if Collins's solo work during that period seemed occasionally indistinguishable from that of his band, it was only evidence of the remarkable transformation that Genesis had undergone from its late '60s art-school roots.

An album that Genesis doesn't formally recognise, because of Jonathon King's input, is full of great tunes.

It is not the prototype Genesis, as it sounds nothing like their next fledgling album 'Trespass', which was to set the tone for their most successful Gabriel-directed work.
In fact it's a surprisingly good 60's album in which Gabriel gets hold of the meaning of adolescence in the way Morrisey was to two decades later.
Yet this is an underrated album and one that suffers not so much from naivete but from being superceded by a substantially different shift in approach - a sea change that was to bring Genesis internatiional success - with the next album issue.
