Utter shite
I've not listened to much of genesis stuff, but what i have heard could curdle milk at 100 paces. It's so boring and in my opinion it doesn't say anything. I'm no music aficionado, but i do like reading the music threads on here and give a little listen to what other posters like. There's some good stuff, but plenty of nondescript lift music that doesn't rouse any part of my being. My opinion of course (who else's) i suppose music taste is determined by so many aspects of life experience.
Whenever people discuss Genesis it's usually about the prog rock era of Gabriel/Hackett and the radio friendly rock of the Phil Collins years, neither of which I'm particularly keen on. What is often overlooked is Genesis's debut album From Genesis To Revelation which doesn't fall into either camp and is actually very good.
A mixture of psychedelic rock and baroque pop. There's one track that sounds like late 1960s Bee Gees.
“I’m no music aficionado” is absolutely spot on. You obviously have no idea what you are talking about. This is one of the greatest bands ever ,who have been very successful for over 50 years. Next time you go shopping, buy yourself some milk that won’t curdle. You do not stay at the top of your business if you have no talent. Please do not insult this band any more.
I have no idea what defines a music aficionada but I watch a lot of live music (last night I watched Odd Morris in M/cr and tonight I'm off to watch the OCs, next week I've got Working Mens Club and Porridge Radio, the week after is Shame and then the Liines - you get the idea), and quite frankly selling a lot of records does not imply you're any good whatsoever. in fact, the more records you sell, the more you move away from what you were in the beginning and start producing music that sells, and not music that you want to make.
Genesis are ****ing gash, utter drivel, a muzak make machine. the only good thing to come out of Phil Collins was the jizz that made Lily.
In your opinion! and what you say in your first paragraph there is some sense.But prog is about musicianship. ELP nothing for me but individually they are super musicians...the same goes for yes and genesis and king crimson. Pink fFoyd are blues based and frank Zappa more fusion jazz. Different strokes for different folks
Well yes of course its my opinion. I prefer finding new music than listening to the same band over and over. There's few bands who make an album better than their first. They played those first songs over many years, honing the songs until they were right. The 2nd album has no such luxury as its usually rushed to market at the behest of the record label
Sabbath
Metal

Close the book
Bring out your dead 💀
Why be so offensive ? No doubt loads of people (including me) think that the stuff you listen to is utter, tuneless and talentless, crap. Collins and the rest have had a 50 year successful career at the top and still fill large venues whereas the people you mention will probably disappear without trace quite quickly.
Just to write Genesis off as crap is a bit daft. Their work is so varied. Trespass is massively different from The Lamb Lies down on Broadway. The Lamb Lies down on Broadway is nothing like Duke etc.
I’m no Collins fan but a big PG fan. However they kept going under Collins and became more successful.
Just to add they are proper musicians too. Hackett is one of the finest guitarists around. Collins one of the best drummers in his prime. Hardly crap.
