Okay, I'm confused. You said previously it was a power pop masterpiece, now you're saying it's the first time you've heard it. Huh?

I was hyping the album to get people involved.

... if only dreams came true. I am so tempted to share the awesomeness of that album with the Album Club. However there are too many album I want to share I don't think I'll pick that album just yet.

Ah-huh. Just before you feel the cold kiss of steel pressing against your temples and squeeze the trigger....



You know what? I don't hate the album. It has good tracks on it. But I really don't like it, and I don't rate it as one of the better Genesis ones, in fact, it's right down at the bottom just before FGtR. Pick it if you want; I'd have fun ripping it a new one. Again.
