3 stars So Here We Go.... Invisible Touch. Alot of prog fans cringe at even the mention of this record. I do not think it is as bad as people say it is.

Invisible touch opens this album. It was the first number 1 hit by genesis. It is a very upbeat track. This track is average at best, and the lyrics are very stupid.

The next track Tonight,Tonight,Tonight is one of the highlights of this album. It is much darker then the first track. It almost sounds like Mama to me. It is one of the longest tracks at almost 9 minutes,and is also one of the proggiest.

The next track is very good. It is my favorite on the album. Land of confusion is almost a hard rock song and is not proggy at all, but it is a very good song.. The music video for this song has to be one of the freakiest videos i have ever seen. it is very cool and I recommend you watch it.

In Too Deep is the next song. It is a very good Ballad with very good lyrics, but this is Genesis and they should not be doing ballads. This sounds like it should be on Phil Collins solo album, but nevertheless it is still a pretty good song.

Anything She Does is a more upbeat song like invisible touch, but it is pretty bad and the lyrics are terrible. One of the worst on the album.

Domino is the next track and is the longest. It is a more proggish song and is pretty good. This song gets boring in the middle but it is still one of the better songs on the album.

Throwing It All Away is next and it is another ballad. Skip this one and if you want a ballad then listen to in too deep. One Of the worst on the album.

The Brazilian is the proggiest track on the album but it is not very good and gets boring after around 2 mins.

So there is Invisible Touch. It is better than most say, and deserves all the pop attention and radio play it got when it is released.
