I'm sure there's an ABACAB lover in there yearning to be free, just waiting for the right moment to burst out in a shower of blood and rainbows.

I bet you could fit 2-3 in there.

No. No it wouldn't. That's an awful song that ruins an alright album, even if they did title it after their name, over ten years later.

There are a few good tracks, but not enough to make a decent Genesis album.

Slayer is holding him back.

Waiting for Neapolitan. Paging Mister Neapolitan....

There is so much to say about this album. I wish I able to give it the review it deserves.

What's stopping you? Surely this is your chance to tell us all how wrong we are?

While reading that it seems like you elected yourself as the head honcho of the anti-Abacab gang and you're daring me to knock the chip off your shoulder.

See that is your problem right there. You can't wait to put on your boxing gloves and go a few rounds with who's right and who's wrong over Abacab. Well kudos to Oriphel for playing the part of Miles Jergens. Icydk he's the promoter who gets heavyweight champion Apollo Creed to fight Rocky. (Icydk Apollo Creed would be Trollheart, the heavyweight champion of album reviews.)

I honestly couldn't give a toss about your hard-on for Abacab. But if you want a thread to wank over it in, this is it. You can't have it both ways: oh I wish I could review Abacab, but I won't do it as TH is mean. ****'s sake man, grow up, huh?

And yes, I'm painfully aware that makes me sound like Frownland.
