finetune artist: Genesis

One of the seminal progressive rock bands, Genesis began in the late-'60s as post-Beatles visionaries with a taste for orchestrated pop melodrama, but quickly mutated into purveyors of ambitious, classical-tinged art rock. After flamboyantly theatrical vocalist Peter Gabriel left (eventually followed by guitarist Steve Hackett), the group gradually turned toward more accessible material under the stewardship of singing drummer Phil Collins. By the '80s, Genesis had become an unstoppable hit-singles machine. Meanwhile, both Gabriel and Collins went on to lucrative solo careers. The band called it a day in 1997, shortly following Collins's departure, but reunited a decade later for a major world tour.

Genesis got inducted (or nominated?) for the Rock Hall of Fame. In honour I listened again to my Vinyl record of theirs from 1983. Still has that new record smell. Probably 20 years since I played it. Which is a pity since it's a fantastic album!

Still on the "Feel Good" genre, check out similar artists like Van Halen, Styx, and Journey.

The all around "feel good" band. If you like "Genesis", I recommend listening to "The Eagles". "The Eagles" are another great all around "feel good" band. Enjoy the music!

...forget all the new crap that Phil Collins excreted it's not worth your time at all...anything onward "The Lamb Lies Down" is a downward spiral (although the first album after the loss of Gabriel wasn't that bad) pop commercialist drivel is then produced...if you want real epic prog listen to "Selling England by the pound"...

I like all Genesis, just depends on which era I'm int he mood for at the time. This is quite possibly one of the most underrated bands of all time. I hate how they get shoved off and disregarded by most people as disposable pop.

Gabriel-era and early "Collins-era" Genesis is amazing...Supper's Ready anyone?? Musical Box? The Knife?! The Lamb? I'm not into much after that, just a few songs like "tonight, tonight, tonight", and "land of confusion".
